2008 Land Rover Range Rover 3.6L Diesel · CU08 LBO

The 2008 Range Rover presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 February 2025 at 123,482 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual test on 1 February 2024 also passed clean at 117,620 miles. The only blemish is a fail on 25 January 2024 at 117,489 miles, which the DVSA log shows with no defects listed, indicating an administrative or unrecorded-cause rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Across the five tests supplied, the vehicle has shown no advisories or recurring component failures. Recorded mileage sits at 123,482 against an 18-year life, averaging roughly 6,860 miles per year, which is typical for the age. The oldest entry, 22 July 2022 at 104,350 miles, jumps to 109,266 by 17 February 2023, then 117,489 by January 2024, and 123,482 by February 2025. Annual accumulation holds near 6,000 to 8,000 miles with no sudden spikes or dormant gaps. The clean sheet on every pass and the no-defect fail suggest the previous keeper kept basic statutory testing current, though the sparse record gives limited insight into consumable renewal intervals. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's mass and age. The MOT history flags no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, but L322 chassis units of this era are prone to underbody rust and failing air suspension components that a visual test may miss. Verify the 2024 fail reason with DVSA, as the blank defect field prevents confirmation of whether rectification addressed a hidden fault. Pre-purchase checks should cover exhaust emissions against current limits and tyre condition, despite no advisories logged. The absence of recorded faults implies reasonable upkeep, yet 123,000 miles on original drivetrain mounts and steering joints warrants physical examination beyond the certificate.
