2015 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.0L Diesel · EY65 TAV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test in May 2024 at 100,408 miles resulted in a failure due to thin front brake pads and wearing rear pads. While the vehicle passed immediately upon re-test, the failure suggests the previous owner waited for components to reach the legal minimum limit rather than replacing them during scheduled service intervals. At 100,408 miles, this 11-year-old Range Rover has averaged approximately 9,100 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage patterns. The data shows a steady accumulation of mileage, with 24,201 miles driven between February 2021 and April 2022, and another 17,543 miles between April 2022 and May 2023. This consistent use suggests the vehicle was not sat for long periods, which is generally beneficial for seals and drivetrain components, though it places standard expected wear on wear-related hardware. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system to ensure the discs show no signs of scoring or uneven wear following the recent pad replacement. Given the history of low tyre tread in 2021 and the brake failure in 2024, the current state of all consumables should be a priority. Because of the age and mileage of the vehicle, attention must also be paid to the suspension bushings and control arms for leaks, as these are common failure points on this model as they approach the 100,000-mile mark.
