2017 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.0L Diesel · RF17 AAU

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-02-03 at 62,774 miles recorded a pass, though a duplicate entry notes a failure on the same date with no defects. This inconsistency suggests administrative error, but the latest valid test indicates stable roadworthiness. No critical mechanical or structural issues were flagged in the history, and the absence of defects in the 2021 and 2026 tests implies consistent maintenance. However, the 2020 failure at 36,685 miles—also without recorded defects—raises questions about potential unresolved concerns, though no follow-up data confirms this. The vehicle’s mileage of 62,774 miles over 9 years aligns with average annual usage of ~6,975 miles, suggesting moderate wear. Notable gaps exist between tests: a five-year interval between the 2020 and 2026 MOTs, during which the vehicle accrued 26,089 miles. This prolonged period without inspection could mask gradual wear in components like suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions. Conversely, the 2021 test at 41,781 miles and 2020 test at 36,687 miles show regular intervals, indicating prior diligence. The sparse defect data across all tests suggests no recurring mechanical failures, but the lack of detailed findings limits deeper analysis. A buyer should prioritise a hands-on inspection of the suspension system, particularly coil springs and shock absorbers, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The rear brakes, which can suffer from binding in Land Rovers, warrant scrutiny, as well as the exhaust system for corrosion. Structural integrity should be verified, though no rust-related issues were noted. The absence of tyre tread or wiper blade failures in the record implies basic upkeep, but a pre-purchase check for fluid leaks, steering alignment, and electrical systems is advisable to confirm the vehicle’s overall condition.
