2022 Land Rover R Rover Evoque R-DYN S D 4X2 2.0L Diesel · SB71 TYG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the recent MOT history indicates a lapse in proactive maintenance. While the car passed its most recent test in January 2026 at 21,255 miles, it initially failed that same test due to an inoperative engine malfunction indicator and a tyre pressure monitoring system fault. The fact that the MIL light was flagged as inoperative suggests a potential electrical or sensor issue that the previous owner had to address immediately to pass the re-test. The mileage profile is notably low for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per annum. A gap of 4,138 miles exists between the January 2025 test at 17,117 miles and the January 2026 test at 21,255 miles. This low usage generally suggests less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can occasionally lead to issues such as flat-spotting tyres or corrosion on brake components if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer must prioritise a diagnostic check of the electrical system to ensure the previously reported MIL fault is resolved and no hidden codes remain. The January 2026 record also noted worn rear brake discs; although not excessive enough to cause a failure, this indicates the components are nearing the end of their early life despite the low mileage. Verify the TPMS system to ensure all sensors are functioning correctly, as this was a primary reason for the most recent inspection failure.
