2014 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.2L Diesel · L26 EMG

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a worsening trend regarding braking components and tyre wear. The most recent test in July 2025 at 118,370 miles flagged front inner brake pads as wearing thin on both sides. This follows a finding in July 2024 at 102,465 miles where the rear brake pads were also noted as thin. While the vehicle passes its tests, the recurring appearance of worn friction material suggests a reactive approach to maintenance rather than proactive replacement. At 118,370 miles, the Range Rover reflects a mileage consistent with its 12-year-old age, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. The data shows a steady usage pattern between early 2022 and 2025, with the vehicle covering roughly 46,000 miles in that three-year period. The gap between the February 2022 and July 2022 tests shows a short interval, but the overall accumulation remains consistent, which typically correlates with the accelerated wear on the drivetrain and suspension components seen in the later advisories. A buyer must inspect the front suspension and alignment, as the July 2024 test specifically noted front tyres wearing on the inner edges. This pattern often points to incorrect camber or worn control arm bushes, which can lead to expensive repairs if left un. Furthermore, the February 2022 record highlighted perished rubber and sidewall damage, suggesting the vehicle may have sat for extended periods or been subjected to harsh road conditions. Given the repeated brake pad issues, a physical check of the disc thickness and caliper condition is essential to ensure they are not scoring or worn beyond the minimum limit.
