2017 Land Rover Range Rover 5.0L Petrol · LH17 ACF

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT record. The most recent test in June 2025 at 47,258 miles resulted in a first-time pass with no defects, advisories, or even a single comment logged. The failure the day prior, at 47,255 miles, also recorded no defects, which typically indicates a procedural issue such as a documentation error or a minor pre-test check rather than a mechanical fault. The maintenance trend is stable and, for a Range Rover, unusually unblemished; there are no recurring issues, no corrosion flags, and no suspension or brake warnings across the entire five-year history. The recorded mileage of 47,258 miles on a 2017 vehicle equates to roughly 5,250 miles per year, which is genuinely low for this model. The annual increments are consistent, with no suspicious gaps or sudden jumps. For example, the vehicle covered 5,255 miles between June 2022 and June 2023, then 8,951 miles to June 2024, and finally 3,627 miles to June 2025. This pattern suggests steady, low-intensity use rather than prolonged storage or high-speed motorway work. The low mileage reduces wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushes, but it also means the vehicle may have been used for short journeys, which can affect battery health and exhaust system moisture. Given the complete absence of any flagged faults, a buyer should still arrange an independent pre-purchase inspection focused on items that degrade with age rather than mileage. The air suspension system on this model is a known weak point; listen for compressor cycling and check for ride height unevenness. Brake discs can corrode if the car sits unused, so examine them for pitting or lipping. Also inspect the underbody for any structural corrosion, particularly around subframe mounts and suspension arms, as these issues often go unreported until they become critical. The clean MOT history is a strong positive, but it does not guarantee that consumables like tyres or brake pads have been replaced proactively.
