Our Verdict
A well-maintained 2016 Range Rover Sport with a clean MOT history and manageable mileage, making it a reliable used purchase for those prioritising luxury SUV capability.
Verify service records to confirm the vehicle's maintenance routine, particularly for diesel-specific components like the DPF and EGR valve. Negotiate based on its slightly above-average mileage for a 10-year-old vehicle, but the clean MOT history offsets this. Check for any unrecorded service history via the DVLA or manufacturer databases. Be cautious of potential long-term reliability issues common to older Land Rovers, such as suspension bushings or electrical system glitches.
Diesel fuel economy averages 30-35 mpg on the move, with higher costs expected due to the vehicle's size. Tax band depends on CO2 emissions (likely £155-£200 annually for 2026/27). Insurance group 25-30 is typical for this model, with premiums reflecting its luxury status. Major maintenance costs may include transmission fluid changes (every 50,000 miles) and suspension component replacements. Estimated annual running cost: £1,200-£1,600.
Inspect the diesel particulate filter (DPF) for soot buildup and check for EGR valve carbon deposits, common in older turbodiesels. Examine suspension components for wear, particularly the air suspension system if equipped. Review the vehicle's history for any unrecorded accidents or major repairs. Test all electronic systems, including the infotainment and driver assistance features, which can be prone to faults in older models.
This 2016 Range Rover Sport has recorded 106,387 miles as of its latest 2025 MOT, showing steady annual usage (approx. 10,000-11,000 miles per year). All MOTs from 2021 to 2025 passed without defects, indicating consistent maintenance. While no model-wide reliability data exists, the vehicle's clean inspection history suggests responsible ownership.
No aggregate MOT data available for the 2016 Range Rover Sport model, but owner reports suggest typical reliability challenges for older luxury SUVs, including electrical system complexity and suspension wear.
