Our Verdict
A sensible purchase for those seeking a
When inspecting this specific black 2.9L diesel model, focus on the recent brake work. The October 2025 MOT failure noted worn front discs and thin rear pads/discs; ensure you receive receipts proving these specific components were replaced rather than just 'adjusted'.
Given the low mileage, check for any signs of age-related deterioration on rubber components. While the MOT history is relatively clean, the aggregate data for this model suggests suspension arms and anti-roll bars are common failure points, so listen for knocks or excessive movement during a test drive.
As a 2993cc diesel, this vehicle falls into a higher tax and insurance bracket typical for large luxury SUVs. Fuel economy will depend heavily on driving style, but buyers should budget for the higher consumption levels associated with a heavy 3.0L engine.
Maintenance costs for Range Rover Sports can be substantial. While the recent MOT failure was limited to brakes, you should prepare for higher-than-average servicing costs for specialist Land Rover components. Estimated annual running costs are typically higher than a standard hatchback due to tyre widths and diesel requirements.
Specifically inspect the braking system. The 2025 MOT failure highlighted pitted front discs and significantly worn rear discs and pads. Verify that the current braking performance is smooth and free of pulsation.
Additionally, pay close attention to the suspension. Although this vehicle has a clean record in this area, aggregate data for the Range Rover Sport shows suspension arms and anti-roll bars as top failure reasons. Check for any uneven tyre wear which could indicate suspension geometry issues.
This 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport has covered 33,431 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average of 7,560 miles per year. The MOT history is largely clean, with no defects recorded between 2022 and 2024. A single failure occurred in October 2025 relating to brake components, which was rectified to achieve a pass.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 84.7% MOT pass rate, with common mechanical issues often relating to suspension and tyres.
