2018 Land Rover Range Rover Velar 2.0L Diesel · RG03 ACG

The vehicle’s most recent MOT, conducted on 2026-01-22 at 65,649 miles, confirms it remains roadworthy with no defects recorded. This pattern of clean passes—spanning five consecutive tests from 2022 to 2026—indicates a stable maintenance history, free from recurring advisories or major failures. The tester’s absence of warnings on critical systems like suspension alignment, brake binding, or structural corrosion suggests the previous owner adhered to at least basic servicing intervals. However, the lack of advisories does not preclude hidden wear; a thorough inspection of high-wear components remains essential. The mileage progression reveals consistent usage without abrupt spikes or prolonged stagnation. From 34,906 miles in September 2022 to 65,649 miles today, the vehicle averages roughly 8,200 miles annually, a rate typical for its class and age. There are no suspicious gaps—each MOT interval aligns with the 12-month legal requirement, and the recorded mileage increments are logical, ruling out extended periods of disuse or rapid high-mileage accumulation. This consistency implies the vehicle has been driven regularly, which may accelerate wear on consumables like tyres and brake pads but does not necessarily indicate neglect. Given the clean MOT history, priority should be given to inspecting suspension components for wear—particularly the coil springs, bushes, and track rods—after eight years and 65,000 miles. The absence of advisories on brakes in recent tests does not rule out uneven pad thickness or glazed discs, so visual inspection of both front and rear systems is critical. Exhaust emissions were not flagged, but a visual check for leaks or corrosion at the catalytic converter and oxygen sensors is advisable, especially given the vehicle’s age. Structural integrity should also be assessed for signs of rust penetration in wheel arches, sills, or subframes, as these areas are prone to deterioration in a Range Rover Velar. Finally, the tyres—though not explicitly tested—should be examined for uneven wear patterns or tread depth below the legal 1.6mm limit.
