2015 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · PL15 ASU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but exhibits a worsening trend of mechanical neglect and reactive maintenance. While it passed its latest test in February 2026 at 135,734 miles, it failed immediately prior due to multiple defects including lighting and suspension issues. The record shows a pattern where faults are only addressed upon an MOT failure rather than through proactive preventative care. The persistence of minor oil leaks and deteriorating rubber components suggests that the owner is performing only the minimum legal requirements rather than ensuring long-term mechanical health. At 135,734 miles, this eleven-year-old Range Rover Sport has covered an average of over 12,000 miles per year, indicating consistent high-mile use. The data shows steady accumulation, with 16,527 miles driven between February 2024 and January 2025, and another 13,692 miles covered between January 2025 and February 2026. This high mileage places significant strain on the drivetrain and suspension assemblies, which is reflected in the recurring failures noted in the history. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and drivetrain. The tester repeatedly flagged damage to the lower suspension arms in 2024, followed by a severely deteriorated ball joint dust cover in 2026. Furthermore, the persistent oil leaks from both the engine and the rear differential have existed since at least 2025 and require a professional assessment to determine if they are simple weeping seals or imminent component failure. The brake system also requires attention, as front brake pads were noted as thinning across three consecutive annual tests, indicating they are nearing the end of their functional life.
