2018 Land Rover Range Rover 3.0L Diesel · SD68 XAL

The vehicle remains roadworthy, having passed the most recent MOT on 2 September 2025 at 65,626 miles with no recorded defects. The pattern of earlier advisories—tyre wear, brake‑disc scoring, and sub‑frame bush wear—has not re‑appeared in the latest test, indicating a stable maintenance trend rather than a worsening one. Mileage has risen from 40,087 miles in September 2021 to 65,626 miles in September 2025, averaging roughly 8,200 miles per year. The increments between each annual test (≈7,100 miles from 2021 to 2022, 6,240 miles to 2023, 6,509 miles to 2024, and 5,673 miles to 2025) show a consistent usage pattern with no abrupt spikes or prolonged idle periods, suggesting regular, moderate driving rather than extreme wear. A prospective buyer should give close attention to the near‑side front tyre for any damage that may have developed since the last advisory, and verify that the near‑side rear tyre retains adequate tread depth. Inspection of the front and rear brake discs for pitting or scoring, and of the rear brake pads for thickness, is prudent given the historical notes on disc wear and thin pads. The rear sub‑frame pins and bushes, previously flagged as worn, should be examined for any excess movement or corrosion, and the brake pipe condition on both sides should be checked for lingering grease or rust. Finally, a visual assessment of the fuel‑tank cradle for any progression of corrosion will confirm that the earlier minor issue has not deteriorated.
