2018 Land Rover Range Rover 3.0L Diesel · SH03 ECO

The most recent MOT on 2025-11-04 recorded a pass but noted "Front Brake pad(s) wearing thin" (1.1.13 (a) (ii)). This indicates a safety-critical issue requiring immediate attention, as thin brake pads can compromise stopping power and lead to further damage. The defect was not addressed in the subsequent MOT, suggesting potential neglect or unresolved repair. The MOT history shows a mixed pattern of failures and passes. In 2024-10-30, a failure for a "Nearside Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively" (3.4 (b) (ii)) was recorded, followed by a pass on the same date. A separate 2023-11-06 failure cited "Nearside Rear Inner Tyre has ply or cords exposed" (5.2.3 (d) (ii)), a structural tyre defect that poses a risk of sudden failure. These issues suggest sporadic maintenance or oversight, but no consistent trend of worsening conditions. The vehicle’s mileage of 88,422 miles over 8 years aligns with typical usage (approx. 11,053 miles per year). This suggests neither extreme under-use nor heavy wear, though higher mileage could accelerate wear on components like brakes, suspension, and drivetrain.
