2018 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · EP18 LDO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test in April 2026 at 40,581 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement, as the mechanical issues identified in 2025 appear to have been addressed. The transition from multiple component warnings to a clean sheet suggests that the previous owner responded to professional advisories rather than allowing faults to escalate into failures. At eight years old, the recorded mileage of 40,581 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. This usage pattern is consistent across the records, with roughly 3,000 miles driven between the March 2025 and 2026 tests. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, short-distance use on a Range Rover Sport can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components and corrosion-related issues on brake discs, particularly if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should conduct a close physical inspection of the front-end suspension and braking system. The 2025 test at 37,561 miles flagged a severely deteriorated offside front lower suspension arm ball joint dust cover and worn front inner brake discs. Although these passed subsequently, an inspector should check for residual grease leakage or play in the ball joints. Furthermore, the history of thin brake pads noted in 2023 indicates that the braking system requires regular attention; the current thickness of the pads should be measured to ensure they are not nearing the end of their service life despite the low overall mileage.
