2011 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · PO61 AXH

The 2011 Land Rover Range Rover Sport demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent MOT on 2023-08-01 at 116,246 miles recording a pass and no defects. A prior failure on 2023-07-21 at 116,244 miles also noted no defects, suggesting either a procedural error or a transient issue resolved before the subsequent test. No recurring mechanical or structural concerns are evident in the recorded history, and the vehicle has maintained compliance with safety standards over its 15-year lifespan. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for the model, averaging 7,750 miles annually. However, irregularities exist: from 2021-03-22 (97,939 miles) to 2021-09-22 (101,747 miles), the car accrued 3,808 miles in six months, followed by a 13-month gap until 2022-10-25 (115,511 miles), during which only 1,764 miles were added. This fluctuation may indicate periods of reduced use, potentially affecting components like brake discs or suspension bushes if left stationary for extended durations. A buyer should prioritize in-person inspection of the suspension system, particularly coil springs and bushes, which are prone to wear in older Range Rovers. The absence of recorded corrosion or structural defects is reassuring, but the vehicle’s age necessitates a thorough underbody check for rust, especially in high-corrosion areas. Brake components, including calipers and discs, should be scrutinized, as binding or uneven wear could develop over time. The exhaust system and emissions compliance should also be verified, as older vehicles may experience gradual degradation in these areas.
