2020 Land Rover Range Rover Velar 2.0L Diesel · ML51 SON

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 24 February 2026 at 78,269 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This followed a failure exactly one day prior at 78,266 miles, though no specific defects were listed for that failure, which suggests either an administrative error or a minor presentation-issue that was rectified immediately before the re-test, rather than a significant mechanical failure. The mileage pattern indicates consistent high usage, averaging approximately 13,000 miles per year over the six-year period. The vehicle covered 17,768 miles between the January 2023 and January 2024 tests, and another 15,671 miles between the January 2024 and February 2025 tests. This steady accumulation suggests regular long-distance motorway-heavy driving, which is generally gentler on the drivetrain than short-trip city use but accelerates the wear on consumable components and suspension bushings. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the history, a buyer should focus on a physical inspection of high-wear areas that the MOT does not fully test. At over 78,000 miles, checking for weeping leaks in the air suspension bellows or perished rubber control arm bushes is essential. The brake system should also be evaluated for thin discs or signs of binding calipers, as high annual mileage puts significant demand on these components over their service life. Checking the condition of the tyres and underbody alignment will ensure the high mileage has not resulted in neglected basic maintenance.
