2011 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · RO11 RVT

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having achieved a clean pass in its most recent test in January 2026 at 77,359 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement, as the recurring defects identified in the 2024 and 2025 tests were resolved by the latest inspection. This suggests the current owner has proactively addressed mechanical issues previously flagged by the tester. The mileage profile is notably low for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,157 miles per year. The data reveals a significant gap in usage between December 2021 and January 2023, where the car covered only 1,846 miles over thirteen months. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain components, such long periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components, suspension bushings, and seals, which are common on the Range Rover Sport. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the engine bay to verify the oil leak that appeared in both 2024 and 2025. Although the tester noted the leak was not excessive, the persistent presence of the fault suggests a weeping gasket or seal that may require monitoring or replacement to prevent future escalation. Additionally, the uneven wear noted on the front tyres in previous years indicates a potential alignment issue or worn suspension components, which should be verified to ensure the current tyres are not failing prematurely.
