2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · RA02 DON

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2025-09-01 at 101,600 miles confirms it remains roadworthy, with no defects or advisories recorded. This marks the third consecutive annual pass without failings, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained consistently over the past three years. The absence of repeated advisories or defects—even on critical systems—implies no obvious pattern of neglect or impending mechanical failure. However, the record’s abrupt duplication of the 2024-09-02 test date (both pass and fail listed) appears anomalous and may warrant clarification, as DVSA typically records only one outcome per test. The mileage progression shows a steady accumulation of approximately 5,000 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. Since the 2022 test at 85,637 miles, the vehicle has covered roughly 16,000 miles in four years, with no extended periods of inactivity or rapid mileage spikes. This pattern suggests regular driving rather than prolonged storage or aggressive use. The lack of gaps between tests also indicates compliance with annual MOT requirements, though the duplicated 2024 entry remains unexplained. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of high-wear components not directly tested by the MOT. At this mileage, the suspension—particularly coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers—should be checked for uneven wear or fluid leaks, as these are not routinely assessed. The brake system, including caliper binding, disc thickness, and rear brake shoe condition, deserves scrutiny, especially if the vehicle has been driven hard or in mixed terrain. Structural integrity, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should be examined for corrosion, as Land Rover models of this era are prone to rust progression over time. Finally, the differential and transfer case should be inspected for leaks, as these are often overlooked but critical for longevity.
