2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · GU64 VEP

The vehicle shows an improving maintenance trend following a period of mechanical concern. The most recent test on 2 October 2025 at 133,749 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a two-year period where the tester flagged fluid leaks, specifically a rear differential leak in September 2023 at 119,077 miles and a non-excessive oil leak in September 2024 at 127,517 miles. The absence of these issues in the latest inspection suggests that the previous leaks may have been addressed or have stabilized. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per year. The records show steady annual increments, such as the jump from 105,620 miles in October 2021 to 113,442 miles in October 2022, and continuing through to the current 133,749 miles. This regular usage pattern suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate risks associated with seized components or perished rubber seals often found in low-usage vehicles. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the drivetrain and underbody to verify the resolution of previous fluid leaks. While the October 2025 pass is clean, the history of a leaking rear differential and general oil leaks warrants a thorough check for residual staining on the engine sump, gearbox casing, and rear axle. Inspecting the condition of the undertrays, which were noted as fitted in October 2022, is also advisable to ensure they are securely fastened and protecting the engine bay from debris. The 2018 failure involving multiple tyres with exposed cords indicates a previous lapse in basic consumable upkeep, though more recent records show better attention to detail. Given the vehicle's age and the typical wear patterns for a Range Rover Sport, a close examination of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and braking system is recommended. Although no recent advisories were issued, the high mileage makes the condition of the dampers and bushings a priority during a road test to ensure no excessive movement or noise is present.
