2019 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · SH12 EEP

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2025-07-16 —just over a year ago—shows a clean pass with no defects recorded, though the record curiously lists both a pass and a fail on the same date at identical mileage, which suggests either a clerical error or a rare DVSA anomaly. No advisories or recurring faults appear in the past five tests, indicating a stable maintenance history with no evidence of worsening mechanical issues. The lack of advisories also implies that previous owners either addressed minor concerns promptly or that the vehicle’s condition has remained consistently sound. However, the absence of any recorded defects does not preclude hidden wear—particularly in high-stress components like suspension bushes, drivetrain joints, or underbody corrosion—which would require a thorough physical inspection. The mileage progression of 10,093 miles per year aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, with no unusual gaps or spikes. The most recent test at 70,650 miles follows a steady pattern: 58,171 miles in 2024, 45,163 miles in 2023, and 32,457 miles in 2022, suggesting consistent annual mileage without prolonged periods of inactivity. There is no evidence of aggressive driving or neglect, though the lack of service records means potential hidden wear in areas like transmission fluid condition, brake master cylinder seals, or differential lubrication cannot be confirmed from this data alone. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a detailed inspection of suspension components , particularly the coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers , as these are common wear items that may not trigger MOT failures until they are severely degraded. The rear brakes warrant scrutiny, as the 2025 test date coincides with the previous pass, and binding calipers or uneven wear could have developed since then. Underbody corrosion , especially around the sills, wheel arches, and exhaust system, is another critical area—this vehicle’s age and typical off-road use increase the risk of structural compromise. Finally, the exhaust emissions system should be checked for leaks or catalytic converter efficiency, as these can fail without obvious external signs. The lack of advisories suggests no immediate red flags, but these components are where silent degradation often occurs.
