2008 Land Rover Range Rover 3.6L Diesel · PO58 XDZ

The 2008 Range Rover presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 27 April 2026 at 124,792 miles with zero defects recorded. That is a notable shift from earlier years. The 2023 test at 115,995 miles flagged a worn offside front suspension arm pin or bush, a typical wear item on a heavy SUV of this age, yet by the following year that defect had cleared, suggesting a repair or replacement was carried out. The two consecutive clean passes since then indicate the vehicle is currently in sound mechanical order with no outstanding advisories. The mileage pattern is consistent and unremarkable for an eighteen-year-old vehicle. Annual increments have hovered between roughly 2,300 and 3,300 miles, with the most recent interval from April 2025 to April 2026 adding 2,317 miles. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in accumulation that would suggest long periods of disuse or odometer anomalies. The overall average of approximately 6,933 miles per year sits comfortably within normal use for a large luxury SUV, and the steady progression supports the impression of regular, routine driving rather than neglect or extreme wear. A buyer should still approach the front suspension with a critical eye. The 2023 advisory on the offside front suspension arm bush points to a component that endures constant stress on a vehicle of this weight. Even though the defect has since cleared, it is worth inspecting the condition of all front suspension bushes, ball joints, and coil springs for fresh wear or play, particularly given the vehicle's age. The 2022 advisory regarding both front tyres wearing to the legal limit and on their edges hints at possible alignment or suspension geometry issues that may have contributed to uneven tyre wear. A thorough check of current tyre condition, wheel alignment, and tracking would be prudent. Beyond the flagged items, the usual areas of concern for a Range Rover of this vintage deserve attention. Inspect the underside for corrosion on subframes, brake lines, and suspension mounting points, as structural rust can develop quietly on vehicles that have seen British road salt over nearly two decades. Examine the braking system for uneven disc wear or binding calipers, and assess the exhaust system for leaks or deterioration. A test drive over varied surfaces will reveal any emerging suspension clunks or drivetrain vibrations that a static inspection might miss.
