2008 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.6L Diesel · NV08 YFA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last four years. The most recention in January 2024 at 168,968 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating a clean pass for the current year. This follows a period of successful testing in 2021 and 2022, suggesting that primary safety components are being maintained. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's 16-year age, averaging approximately 9,400 miles per year. There is a regular interval between tests, such as the 4,000 miles covered between December 2021 and December 2022, and another 7,600 miles between December 2022 and January 2024. This steady usage pattern suggests the car has not been left to sit for long periods, which is generally beneficial for seals and mechanical components in a Land Rover. While the recent records are clean, the history highlights a recurring focus on the undersealing of fuel and brake pipes in both 2020 and 2022. This indicates a proactive approach to corrosion, which is a known vulnerability for this model. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the chassis and underbody to Ensure that the undersealing has effectively prevented structural rust from developing. Given the high mileage and age, a thorough check of the air suspension system and braking components is essential, as these are common areas of failure on the Sport. Although the MOT does not show recent mechanical faults, the buyer should look for leaks in the air bags or excessive wear on the drivetrain to ensure the vehicle remains reliable beyond the basic safety requirements.
