2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · SO02 ACE

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, showing a stable maintenance trend following its most recent inspection. On 26 August 2025 at 48,348 miles, the car passed with no recorded defects, mirroring the clean results from the 2024 and 2022 tests. This suggests that the primary mechanical and safety systems monitored by the DVSA are operating within tolerance parameters without recurring failures over the last three years. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,835 miles per year. The record shows consistent low-usage patterns, with a 5,530-mile interval between August 2024 and August 2025, and another 7,009 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and braking components, it can sometimes lead to secondary issues such as rubber perished or brake caliper corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. The only significant red flag in the history occurred on 30 August 2023 at 35,711 miles, where the vehicle failed due to an inoperative engine management indicator light. Although the car passed immediately later that same day, this failure indicates a past electrical fault or sensor malfunction. A buyer should perform a diagnostic scan to ensure no hidden fault codes remain in the engine management. Given the low mileage and the age of the vehicle, a physical inspection should also focus on the air suspension bellows for leaks and cracks in the bushings, as these components suffer from age-related degradation regardless of miles driven.
