2014 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.2L Diesel · MW64 WSX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward neglect regarding consumable items. While the most recent test in September 2025 at 74,080 miles passed, it introduced multiple critical advisories regarding tyre condition. The tester flagged perishing and cracking on both nearside and offside rear tyres, alongside an offside rear tyre worn to the legal limit. This indicates that while mechanical components have passed, the owner has recently deferred essential rubber maintenance. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,200 miles per year. Between September 2022 at 55,118 miles and September 2025 at 74,080 miles, the car covered roughly 19,000 miles. This low-usage profile typically reduces the strain on the drivetrain and engine components, but it often leads to the degradation of rubber parts, as seen in the latest MOT result. The lack of significant spikes in mileage between tests suggests the vehicle has been used predictably without long stationary intervals. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the remaining tyre set, as the recorded cracking and perishing suggest the rubber is reaching the end of its life regardless of tread depth. The failure in 2023 regarding a non-functional centre seat belt buckle was rectified, but it highlights a past oversight in interior safety checks. Given the age of the vehicle and the low mileage, the inspection should also focus on signs of suspension wear and brake corrosion, as these components can suffer from age and moisture more than from high mileage when a car is not driven frequently.
