2012 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · LH62 AAY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in December 2025 at 119,056 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but shows a transition toward minor peripheral defects such as the damaged offside windscreen and inoperative registration plate lamp. While the vehicle consistently passes its tests, the emergence of minor electrical and glasswork issues suggests a reactive approach to maintenance where items are only addressed when they fail inspection rather than through preventative care. At 119,056 miles, the Range Rover has averaged approximately 8,500 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a luxury SUV of this age. The data shows a significant spike in usage between June 2024 and December 2024, where the vehicle covered nearly 5,000 miles in just six months. Prior to this, the mileage accumulation was more consistent, averaging roughly 10,000 miles annually. This recent period of higher may have placed stress on the complex air suspension and drivetrain components common to Land Rover models. A physical inspection must focus heavily on the underbody corrosion noted during the June 2023 test at 94,578 miles. Although the vehicle passed the subsequent test, rust on these chassis can progress rapidly and compromise structural integrity over time if not closely monitored. The buyer should also verify the condition of the suspension bushes and air bags, as the high mileage and age increase the likelihood of rubber component failure. The recurring failure of the registration plate lamp in both 2024 and 2025 indicates a lack of attention to minor electrical faults that should be checked for deeper wiring issues.
