2023 Land Rover Range Rover SV Auto 4.4L Petrol · R11 TAV

The most recent MOT carried out on 12 February 2026 resulted in a full pass with no recorded defects or advisories. With only a single MOT entry available, the maintenance picture appears stable; there are no indications of deteriorating condition or recurring fault patterns, and the vehicle has met the statutory safety and emissions criteria at the last test. At three years old the Range Rover has logged 11,177 miles, which works out to roughly 3,700 miles per annum. This is considerably below the typical usage rate for a vehicle of its class and suggests either light, occasional driving or extended periods of inactivity. Low annual mileage reduces wear on consumables such as brake pads, tyres and suspension components, but it can also mean that the car may have spent significant time standing, a factor that can promote corrosion, battery sulphation and fluid degradation if not periodically run. Given the low mileage and the absence of MOT‑recorded faults, the buyer should focus on age‑related inspections. Examine the tyre tread depth and sidewalls for any cracking, dry‑rot or hardening of the rubber, as tyres three years old can begin to perish even with little use. Verify the 12 V battery’s state of charge, cranking performance and electrolyte level (if applicable), and consider a load test to confirm that capacity has not been compromised by long periods of storage. Inspect the under‑carriage, wheel arches and suspension mounting points for any signs of surface rust, especially around the chassis rails and control arm bushes, which can develop when a vehicle sits for extended periods. A thorough visual and tactile check of the service records is advisable to confirm that time‑based maintenance items have been observed – for example, the first oil change, coolant flush and brake fluid replacement which are typically scheduled at 12‑month or 10 000‑mile intervals regardless of mileage. Examine the brake discs for surface rust and the pads for remaining thickness; even with low wear, discs can develop a thin layer of corrosion that may cause shudder if not cleaned. Assess the suspension for any play in the ball joints, worn bushings or leaking shock absorbers, and listen for any clunking or uneven noises during a short test drive, particularly over bumps and while applying the brakes. Confirm that all electronic systems, including the air‑suspension and terrain response controls, operate smoothly, as electronic faults can sometimes surface after prolonged inactivity.
