2012 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · MA62 OFX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend toward improving maintenance standards. Following the most recent test in January 2025 at 73,559 miles, the car passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This represents a significant improvement over previous years where minor mechanical and consumable issues were identified, suggesting that the current owner has addressed outstanding faults that were flagged in earlier inspections. The mileage pattern is notably low for a fourteen-year-old Land Rover, averaging approximately 5,254 miles per year. There is a distinct gap in usage between December 2020 and December 2021, where the vehicle covered only 2,349 miles in a year. However, the usage rate increased sharply between January 2023 and January 2025, with 27,571 miles covered in those two years, implying the vehicle is now being used more frequently. Long periods of low use can sometimes lead to dry seals and fluid degradation. A buyer should focus on the braking system and suspension during a physical inspection. The records from 2019 and 2020 highlighted recurring issues with both front and rear brake discs, alongside a fluctuating front service brake. While the recent tests show no defects, the history suggests a tendency for uneven wear or heat spotting in the braking components. Given the low mileage and age of the vehicle, the air suspension components should also be scrutinised for perished rubber or leaking valves, as these often degrade through age and sitting stationary for long periods.
