2013 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.2L Diesel · GV13 VHL

The Evoque presents as roadworthy following its most recent DVSA test on 28 January 2026 at 163,003 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable. Two prior failures on 31 January 2025 at 157,861 miles and 15 January 2024 at 127,813 miles both show no defects logged, with passes issued days later at 157,862 and 127,814 miles respectively. This pattern indicates administrative or presentational issues at initial presentation rather than unresolved mechanical faults. Mileage stands at 163,003 against a 2013 build, averaging 12,539 per year and marking the car as high-use for its class. The record shows a sharp 30,048-mile jump between the January 2024 test and the February 2025 pass, then only 5,141 miles in the following year. Such swing suggests a period of heavy commuting or business use followed by lighter running. The clean advisory columns across all five entries mean no worn suspension bushes, corroded structures, or failing brake discs were flagged at any stage. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the suspension and drivetrain given the high total mileage and the 2024 to 2025 accumulation. The twin failure-pass pairs imply the vehicle was presented without a valid test certificate on those dates, possibly reflecting an owner who deferred booking until deadline. No recurring advisories appear, so consumable wear was evidently addressed before each test. Physically verify the underbody for corrosion and check the front control arm bushes and rear coil springs for fatigue not captured by the bare pass records. The absence of flagged defects offers reassurance, but the mileage alone warrants scrutiny of the turbo and transmission before purchase.
