2007 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 2.7L Diesel · DP 6600

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-11-04 at 170,157 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, the same date shows a prior failure with no defects noted, suggesting potential administrative or technical inconsistencies in the testing process. Subsequent tests in 2024 and 2023 also passed without defects, reinforcing that the car has met regulatory standards in recent years. No recurring mechanical issues are evident from the record, but the absence of defect descriptions limits detailed analysis of underlying conditions. The mileage progression shows consistent annual usage of approximately 4,500–5,000 miles between 2023 and 2025, significantly lower than the vehicle’s average of 8,956 miles per year. This suggests periods of reduced activity, which could contribute to component degradation from inactivity, such as corrosion or seized joints. The 2023 test at 161,493 miles and 2024 test at 165,527 miles indicate gradual wear, but no critical issues were flagged. The sparse defect data makes it challenging to assess long-term maintenance trends, though the lack of major failures implies routine upkeep. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the exhaust system, as emission-related failures without defects may indicate minor but recurring issues. Suspension components, including bushes and coil springs, warrant scrutiny due to the vehicle’s age and potential for wear. Corrosion, particularly in underbody areas, should be checked, given the low mileage and possible exposure to moisture. Brake systems, including discs and calipers, should also be examined for binding or uneven wear, as these are common in older vehicles with sporadic use. The MOT history does not highlight structural concerns, but physical inspection remains essential to confirm the car’s condition.
