2020 Land Rover R Rover Evoque R-DYN S D 4X2 2.0L Diesel · CV20 HUU

The Evoque presents as roadworthy following the most recent pass on 2026-03-27 at 30,015 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across its short recorded history. The March 2026 pass came one day after a failed attempt on 2026-03-26 at identical mileage, though the tester logged no defects on either entry, suggesting an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. A similar pattern occurred in March 2025, where a fail on 2025-03-24 at 25,184 miles preceded a pass the same day at 25,186 miles with no defects recorded. These back-to-back fail/pass pairs with zero advisories indicate no worsening mechanical condition, but the duplicated entries warrant scrutiny of the test centre's documentation. Recorded mileage shows light use for a six-year-old vehicle, rising from 19,167 miles at the 2024-03-14 test to 25,186 miles by March 2025, then to 30,015 miles by March 2026. That equates to roughly 5,000 miles per year, with no rapid accumulation or suspicious gaps between the three annual tests. The clean record across all five entries means no consumable wear items such as tyres, brake discs, or wiper blades were flagged, nor any corrosion or structural integrity concerns raised by testers. Given the absence of recorded advisories or defects, a buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers, as low-mileage vehicles left standing for extended periods can develop perished rubbers or binding calipers not captured in a pass result. The repeated same-day fail and pass anomalies in 2025 and 2026 should prompt verification of the DVSA certificate numbers to confirm no omitted defect data. Exhaust emissions and drivetrain components show no flagged issues, but a pre-purchase compression and leak-down check remains prudent on any low-use turbo diesel.
