2014 Land Rover Range Rover 4.4L Diesel · FP64 JCZ

This Range Rover’s most recent MOT test on 2026-02-23 passed without defects, marking a stable roadworthiness trend over the past year. The vehicle has undergone two consecutive tests in February 2026—one pass and one fail—suggesting a brief but unnecessary delay in bringing it in for inspection. No recurring faults or advisories appear in the records, which is unusual given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The absence of defects in the most recent pass indicates the tester did not identify any immediate structural, suspension, or braking issues requiring attention. However, the repeated January and February tests in 2025 and 2026 imply either administrative oversight or a pattern of deferring maintenance until the last possible moment. The recorded mileage of 86,539 miles over approximately 12 years aligns with typical usage for this model, averaging around 7,200 miles annually. There are no significant gaps or spikes in the data, though the lack of intermediate MOTs between 2024 and 2025—just a single pass in January 2024 followed by two tests in early 2025—suggests the vehicle may have been driven consistently without major service intervals. This pattern does not necessarily indicate neglect, but it does mean critical maintenance—such as suspension servicing, brake fluid changes, or differential inspections—could have been deferred. The absence of advisories in the most recent tests does not guarantee these areas have been addressed, so a buyer should verify their service history independently. Given the vehicle’s age and mileage, a thorough inspection should prioritise the suspension system, particularly the coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers, for wear or corrosion. The braking system—including calipers, discs, and hydraulic lines—should be checked for binding or uneven wear, especially if the vehicle has been driven off-road. Structural integrity, particularly around the wheel arches, sills, and subframe, warrants close examination for rust penetration or distortion, as Land Rover models of this era are prone to corrosion in these areas. The exhaust system should also be inspected for leaks or excessive rust, as failing emissions tests in prior years might indicate ongoing issues with catalytic converters or oxygen sensors. While the MOT record shows no defects, these components are high-risk for a vehicle of this age and should not be overlooked.
