2011 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · OM05 AAA

A remarkably consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with a complete absence of recorded defects or advisories across several years of testing. This trend of stability is evidenced by the clean pass on 23 September 2023, indicating that the primary safety and emissions components have remained within legal limits without the chronic wear typically seen in luxury SUVs of this vintage. The recorded mileage of 116,357 miles represents a typical annual accumulation of approximately 7,757 miles over its fifteen-year lifespan. This usage profile suggests a balanced operational history, avoiding the risks associated with prolonged periods of stagnation while remaining below the threshold where heavy drivetrain fatigue becomes inevitable. The consistency in mileage suggests the vehicle has been used regularly, which generally supports the health of seals and gaskets. Given the absence of flagged suspension bushes, brake line corrosion, or oil leaks in the DVSA history, the physical inspection should focus on verifying this clean record. During a test drive, pay close attention to the air suspension for any unevenness in ride height or audible compressor struggle, and listen for any knocks or clunks from the suspension linkages when traversing uneven surfaces. Check for any pedal judder or steering pull during braking to ensure the braking system remains efficient, as the lack of recorded binding calipers or worn discs suggests a well-maintained system. While the MOT history is devoid of structural advisories, a visual check of the subframe and chassis for surface corrosion is still prudent to confirm the vehicle's long-term structural integrity.
