2022 Land Rover Range Rover Autobio Phev Auto 3.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · SH72 KAK

The most recent MOT test conducted on 26 November 2025 resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates that, at the time of testing, the vehicle met all essential safety and environmental standards required by the DVSA. Based on the available documentation, the maintenance trend appears stable, although the absence of a long-term historical record means we cannot definitively track the progression of wear on specific components over several years. The recorded mileage of 21,099 miles for a four-year-old vehicle represents an average annual usage of approximately 5,275 miles. This is considerably lower than the standard national average, suggesting the vehicle has been used for short trips or has experienced extended periods of inactivity. While lower mileage typically correlates with reduced wear on the engine, transmission, and drivetrain, it necessitates a more cautious inspection regarding components that degrade due to age and lack of use rather than mechanical friction. Given the low usage profile, a prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the tyres, looking specifically for sidewall cracking or perishing, which can occur when rubber hardens from age despite having ample tread. It is also critical to assess the condition of the braking system; low-frequency use can lead to brake disc corrosion or binding calipers caused by surface rust buildup. During a test drive, listen for any clunks from the suspension bushes or coil springs, which may have stiffened from lack of regular movement, and check for any brake shudder or pulling to the side that might indicate uneven wear or seized components. As this is a Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle, particular attention should be paid to the health of both the 12V auxiliary battery and the high-voltage hybrid battery, as infrequent charging cycles can impact long-term reliability. You should also verify the service book to ensure that maintenance has been carried out on a calendar basis rather than strictly by mileage. This includes checking for annual oil changes, coolant refreshes, and brake fluid replacements, as these fluids can degrade chemically over time regardless of how many miles the vehicle has covered. Finally, inspect the underside for any signs of fluid leaks from seals that may have dried out due to infrequent thermal cycling.
