2015 Land Rover Range Rover 4.4L Diesel · G1 AMH

This 2015 Land Rover Range Rover presents a stable but marginally worsening maintenance trend regarding its braking system, culminating in a pass at 101,118 miles during the most recent test on 7 November 2025. The record contains no structural advisories or severe mechanical failures, indicating the chassis and core drivetrain remain serviceable. Brake wear, however, dominates the recent history. The vehicle passed its latest test only seven months ago, yet the tester flagged a worn inner face on the front brake discs. This specific wear pattern points to early glazing or mild corrosion buildup on the inner disc surfaces, a common trait of larger, heavy vehicles subjected to inconsistent braking loads. Mileage accumulation aligns closely with typical usage for an eleven-year-old SUV, averaging roughly 9,200 miles annually across the documented timeline. The progression from 64,929 miles in April 2022 to 101,118 miles in November 2025 demonstrates steady, uninterrupted driving with no periods of prolonged inactivity. A notable acceleration occurred between May 2023 and October 2024, where the odometer climbed from 81,525 miles to 94,912 miles over seventeen months. This sustained high-mileage running places increased strain on suspension components and wheel bearings, areas that remain entirely undocumented in the MOT history and warrant immediate physical verification. The recurring brake defects form a clear pattern of consumable wear rather than a deep mechanical fault, though the data implies previous owners delayed routine servicing. The car failed its May 2023 test at 81,525 miles for front brake pads measuring less than 1.5mm, which the driver should have identified long before the inspection. By October 2024 at 94,912 miles, the rear pads were wearing thin. The subsequent advisory in November 2025 for worn front inner disc faces confirms the front brakes are approaching the end of their current service life. A buyer must anticipate immediate replacement of the front brake discs and pads, alongside a thorough assessment of the rear brakes. The complete absence of suspension advisories on a high-mileage Range Rover is unusual, so a physical inspection should specifically target suspension bushes, coil springs, and steering linkages to ensure latent wear has not been overlooked.
