2017 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.0L Diesel · SL67 GXW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in October 2025 with 96,427 miles. However, the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. A failure occurred just two days prior to the pass, where the vehicle presented multiple safety defects, including a fractured offside rear coil spring and illegal tyre tread depths. While the immediate issues were rectified, the frequency of failures suggests that components are only addressed once they reach the point of failure. At 96,427 miles over nine years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 10,700 miles per year, which is consistent with typical usage for an SUV of this age. There is a notable spike in activity recorded recently, with the car covering over 7,000 miles between June 2024 and July 2025. This rapid accumulation suggests the vehicle is currently being used heavily, which will accelerate the wear on expensive components such as the suspension and braking system. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension and artwork assemblies. The history notes a broken rear coil spring and recurring inner-edge wear on the rear tyres, which often points to alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. Furthermore, the repeated mention of pitted rear discs and thin pads in 2024 indicates that the braking system is nearing the end of its service life. The buyer should check for wheel bearing play, as a noisy offside front bearing was flagged in July 2025, and ensure the current tyres are properly aligned to prevent further premature wear.
