2021 Land Rover Range Rover Velar D Mhev Auto 2.0L Diesel · LG71 TNV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a recent trend of reactive rather than proactive care. While it passed its latest test in August 2025 at 25,031 miles, this followed a failure just nine days prior at 24,681 miles. The failure revealed an inoperative Malfunction Indicator Lamp and significant brake-related defects, suggesting that the previous owner only addressed the vehicle to rectify faults once they threatened an MOT pass. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per annum. There is a significant mileage gap between the August 2024 test at 14,831 miles and the August 2025 test, where the car covered over 10,000 miles in twelve months. This low-use pattern often results in periods of standing that lead to surface corrosion on braking components, which aligns with the pitting and scoring found on the brake discs in the late 2025 records. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the braking system, as the tester flagged persistent pitting and scoring on both front and rear discs in August 2025. Despite the pass, these conditions indicate the discs are reaching the end of their life or suffering from environmental corrosion. The previous failure of the engine malfunction indicator lamp also remains a critical concern; a diagnostic scan is required to ensure the MHEV engine management system is functioning correctly and that no hidden fault codes remain in the memory.
