2015 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.0L Diesel · RF65 NFA

The 2015 Range Rover Evoque presents a stable and currently sound roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 1 December 2025 at 90,494 miles with zero defects recorded. This clean sheet is a significant improvement over the preceding years, suggesting the previous owner addressed the recurring tyre and brake wear issues that had featured in earlier tests. The maintenance trend is therefore clearly improving, moving from a pattern of repeated minor advisories to a fully compliant pass. The vehicle has covered approximately 8,227 miles per year over its eleven-year life, which is a typical annual average for its age. The mileage progression is consistent and well-documented, with no suspicious gaps or sudden accumulation. The 2025 test recorded 90,494 miles, up from 81,164 miles in December 2024, indicating roughly 9,330 miles were covered in that final year, a slight uptick from the long-term average but nothing alarming. The record is complete and sequential, with no missing years, which supports a transparent ownership history. Despite the clean 2025 result, the recurring theme across the 2023 and 2024 tests was premature edge wear on both front tyres, with the offside wearing to approximately 2.5mm by December 2024. This pattern often points to misaligned tracking, worn suspension bushes, or damaged wishbone components rather than simple neglect. A buyer should have the front suspension and steering geometry inspected thoroughly, checking for play in the inner bushes, ball joints, and tie rod ends. Uneven tyre wear on a vehicle with all-wheel-drive capability can also indicate neglected drivetrain servicing, so the transmission fluid and differential oil condition should be verified. The brake history shows a gradual deterioration and then resolution. In December 2022, the tester flagged worn and pitted rear brake discs, and by November 2021, both front and rear discs were similarly affected alongside thin rear brake pads. The fact that no brake defects appeared in the 2024 or 2025 tests suggests the discs and pads were replaced, which is positive. However, a physical inspection of the braking system remains worthwhile, particularly checking for uneven disc thickness, binding calipers, and the condition of the handbrake mechanism, which is a known weak point on this model. The undertray fitted at the 2021 test should also be examined for damage or loose fixings, as it can trap moisture and accelerate corrosion on subframe components.
