2020 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · M29 MAH

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 23 May 2026, maintaining a highly stable maintenance trend over the last four years. With three consecutive clean passes prior to the most recent test, the vehicle has demonstrated consistent roadworthiness and a lack of recurring mechanical failures. The emergence of a single advisory regarding tyre wear is a common consumable issue and does not indicate a systemic decline in the vehicle's overall structural or mechanical integrity. At 38,008 miles over approximately six years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 6,335 miles per annum. This usage rate is considered typical to low for a premium SUV of this class, suggesting that the powertrain and drivetrain components have not been subjected to excessive wear. However, lower annual mileage can sometimes lead to secondary issues such as carbon build-up in the engine or the degradation of rubber components that rely on regular heat cycles and movement to remain supple. Regarding the latest advisory, the nearside front tyre is noted as being worn close to the legal limit and specifically worn on the edge. This pattern often points toward a misalignment of the front steering geometry or worn suspension bushes. During a test drive, the buyer should listen for any knocks or clunks from the front end and check for a pull in the steering. It is recommended that a four-wheel laser alignment be performed when the tyre is replaced to prevent premature wear on the new rubber. Given the vehicle's age and relatively low mileage, attention should be paid to time-based degradation. The buyer should inspect the brake discs for heavy surface corrosion or binding calipers, which can occur if the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary. The health of the 12V battery should be verified given the high electrical demand of the Range Rover Sport's onboard systems. Finally, ensure the service history confirms calendar-based fluid changes, as engine oil and coolant lose their chemical efficacy over time regardless of the odometer reading.
