2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.0L Diesel · LS68 AEB

The Evoque presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 September 2025 at 29,850 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following a failed attempt earlier that same day at 29,847 miles where the tester logged no defects; this suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in 2024, 2023 and 2022 all passed cleanly, showing no worsening pattern across the vehicle's recorded history. The mileage reflects light use for an eight-year-old vehicle. From the 2022 test at 13,747 miles to the 2025 test at 29,850 miles, the car covered just 16,103 miles over three years, averaging roughly 3,700 miles per year. The 2024 reading of 23,320 miles and the 2023 reading of 17,776 miles confirm a steady, low annual accumulation with no sudden gaps or rapid wear cycles. The clean MOT slate means no consumable or structural issues were formally flagged at any stage. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection given the low mileage and the unexplained 2025 failure. Prolonged standing at low use can allow brake calipers to seize, tyres to develop flat spots, and suspension bushes to degrade without visible MOT advisories. The absence of recorded corrosion, exhaust, or structural defects is reassuring but does not exempt the chassis and underbody from physical checks. Pay particular attention to brake disc condition, fluid age, and any signs of damp or rust in the sills and subframes. The Evoque's age makes perished rubber components and inactive drivetrain seals plausible even with a clean test record. Verifying service history against the 29,850-mile odometer remains the prudent step before purchase.
