2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 2.7L Diesel · FL06 DSE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 12 September 2022 at 189,138 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior pass on 24 September 2021 at 188,543 miles also showed a clean sheet. The only blemish is a fail on 10 September 2021 at 188,542 miles, which the DVSA record lists with no defects recorded, indicating an administrative or presentation failure rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage accumulation is modest for a 2006 vehicle. The odometer moved just 595 miles between the September 2021 tests and the September 2022 pass, averaging under 600 miles a year across that span. Over its life the recorded 189,138 miles equate to roughly 9,457 miles annually, typical for the age, though the near-static reading in the final two years suggests the Range Rover Sport saw very limited use before its last test. The sparse history gives no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across the three entries. A buyer should still inspect structural integrity underneath, as these models are prone to chassis and subframe rust that a pass with no defects may not detail. Check for binding calipers and worn suspension components given the low recent mileage, which can mask perished seals and flat-spotted tyres from standing. Given the 10 September 2021 fail with no defects logged, confirm with DVLA why the tester rejected it before purchase. The clean subsequent passes imply previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but the four-year gap to today's date means a fresh test is essential before relying on this record.
