2008 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 2.7L Diesel · OE57 XPF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by three consecutive MOT passes without recorded defects. The most recent test in February 2026 at 168,218 miles resulted in no failures, indicating that the mechanical and safety systems currently meet the minimum legal standards. This follows a period of consistency after a failure in late 2022, suggesting the current owner addressed necessary repairs and has since maintained a consistent standard of upkeep over the last three years. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a vehicle of this age and type, averaging approximately 9,300 miles per year. Between February 2025 and February 2026, the vehicle covered 6,551 miles, while the interval between January 2024 and February 2025 saw an increase of 4,860 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of stationary storage or short trips, which is generally beneficial for the seals, bushings, and air suspension components found in high-mileage Land Rover products. Despite the clean record in recent tests, a buyer must focus their physical inspection on high-wear areas inherent to the Range Rover Sport at this mileage. The failure in November 2022 at 149,776 miles indicates a specific issue required rectification, but the subsequent lack of advisories suggests structural integrity and major corrosion are not at a critical stage for now. Given the 168,000-mile mark, an inspection for leaks in the air suspension system and wear on suspension bushes is essential, as these components often do not trigger an MOT failure until they are nearing total collapse.
