2021 Land Rover R Rover Velar R-DYN HSE Mhev A 3.0L Petrol · M21 ARC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs regarding consumable components. The most recent test in December 2025 at 64,331 miles passed despite several advisories related to tyre condition and sensors. The tester flagged a nearside front tyre worn near the legal limit and a cut on the offside front outer tyre. The presence of a TPMS light indicates a sensor failure or a pressure issue that has not yet been addressed, marking a lapse in attention to electronic safety systems. The mileage profile reflects heavy usage, averaging approximately 13,000 miles per year which sits above the national for a five-year-old SUV. There is a significant jump of 15,648 miles recorded between January 2024 and December 2024, followed by another 10,978 miles in the twelve months leading up to the December 2025 test. This consistent high mileage suggests long-distance motorway driving, which typically places higher stress on the vehicle's drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and MHEV system compared to low-mileage city vehicles. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the tyres and suspension, as the recent advisory for uneven wear on the nearside front suggests potential alignment issues or worn control arms. The active TPMS light requires a diagnostic scan to determine if a sensor is faulty or if there is a slow leak. Given the previous failures for wiper blades and headlamp aim in late 2024, the owner appears to address faults only when prompted by the MOT tester, so a check of brake pad thickness and fluid levels is essential to ensure no other mechanical neglect has occurred between service intervals.
