2011 Land Rover Range Rover 4.4L Diesel · J8 FPL

The most recent MOT test on 2025-11-28 confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy with no defects recorded at 134,888 miles. Over the past three annual tests—all conducted within a narrow window of late November—there has been no evidence of recurring mechanical issues, advisories, or structural concerns. The absence of failings in the 2024 and 2025 tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though the duplicate pass/fail entry in 2023 (both dated 2023-11-27) implies either a clerical error or an unusually late test date that year. The lack of advisories in any test further indicates no hidden or deferred issues were flagged by the tester. The mileage progression shows a steady accumulation of approximately 11,333 miles per year over the last three tests, which aligns with the vehicle’s typical usage pattern for its age. The gap between the 2022 and 2023 tests—covering 11,759 miles in just over a year—does not indicate excessive wear, though it does suggest the vehicle was in regular use rather than stored. The absence of any test dates outside the November window makes it impossible to confirm whether intermediate maintenance was performed, but the consistent annual testing suggests at least basic compliance with MOT requirements. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of the suspension components, particularly the coil springs and bushes, which are prone to fatigue at this mileage. The brakes, while not failed in any test, should be scrutinised for uneven wear or binding calipers, as the 2023 duplicate entry might have masked subtle issues. Corrosion around the wheel arches, sills, and subframe should be checked for structural integrity, especially in a vehicle of this age. Finally, the exhaust system and emissions should be examined for leaks or excessive smoke, as these are common areas for gradual deterioration that may not always trigger an MOT failure.
