2004 Land Rover Rangerover 2.9L Diesel · CU54 BSO

This 2004 Land Rover Range Rover has covered 132,092 miles, averaging roughly 6,000 miles per year. This is typical usage for a vehicle of this age, suggesting it hasn't been excessively driven but also hasn't been sitting idle for vast periods. The MOT history reveals a significant and worsening pattern of structural corrosion. While the vehicle has passed its tests, the issues have progressed from localized corrosion on jacking points and the rear axle in 2020 to more serious concerns regarding the integral body structure and sills in 2021. The mention of chassis corrosion near mounting points is a major red flag for a vehicle of this age. Mechanical issues also appear recurring, specifically regarding the braking system and suspension components. You have seen evidence of damp brake calipers, corroded brake pipes, and binding brakes, alongside deteriorating suspension bushes and anti-roll bar ball joint play. The overall condition trend looks to be worsening, particularly regarding the structural integrity of the chassis and sills. While the mileage is consistent with its age, the cumulative effect of corrosion and wear on consumables like brakes and suspension is evident. Before purchasing, you must inspect the underside of the vehicle thoroughly.
