2021 Land Rover Range Rover Velar ED D Mhev A 2.0L Diesel · G22 JBH

This Range Rover Velar has maintained a clean MOT history with no defects recorded across the last three tests, all of which were passed without fail. The most recent inspection on 1st April 2026, at 37,988 miles, confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy under current DVSA standards. There is no evidence of recurring mechanical issues, and the absence of advisories suggests the previous owner—or owners—have adhered to basic maintenance intervals. However, the 13-month gap between the 2026 and 2025 tests, while within the legal MOT cycle, means the vehicle has not been formally assessed for 13,283 miles. This period could mask potential wear in high-stress components like suspension bushes or brake calipers, which are not always flagged until they reach critical thresholds. The recorded mileage of 37,988 miles over approximately five years—roughly 7,600 miles annually—falls within the expected range for this model’s age. There are no abrupt spikes or prolonged stagnation in the data, indicating consistent usage rather than neglect or excessive idling. The most notable interval is the 7,771 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests, which aligns with typical annual mileage without raising red flags. Still, the lack of intermediate servicing records means critical fluids (e.g., differential oil, transfer case fluid) could not be verified, and wear items like timing belts or exhaust components may require verification if the vehicle has been driven in mixed conditions. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components, particularly the coil springs and bushes, which are prone to fatigue over 38,000 miles. The brakes—though never failed—should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, as hybrid-electric vehicles like this often experience higher thermal stress. Corrosion is another critical area; the underbody, wheel arches, and subframe should be examined for rust, especially if the vehicle has seen off-road use or exposure to salted roads. Finally, the hybrid battery system, while not MOT-tested, warrants confirmation that it remains within manufacturer specifications, as degradation can occur without external symptoms. The absence of defects does not preclude hidden wear, so a pre-purchase diagnostic focusing on these areas is advisable.
