2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque R-DY SE D A 2.0L Diesel · SP55 CLP

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 20 February 2026 with no defects or advisories recorded, which represents a clean roadworthy outcome at the point of test. Looking across the available history, the record shows a consistent pattern of passes from 2023 onwards, with a single failed test on 1 August 2024 that was followed by a pass just two days later on 3 August 2024, indicating that any issue was promptly rectified rather than being an unresolved structural or mechanical concern. With no advisories logged across any of the tests and no repeat defect patterns, the maintenance trend can be reasonably characterised as stable and well-managed, which is reassuring for a vehicle of this age and complexity. Recorded mileage stands at 36,242 miles across approximately six years of use, equating to an annual average of around 6,040 miles, which is broadly typical for a premium SUV of this type. There are no obvious extended gaps in the mileage record that would suggest prolonged periods of standing, nor is there any rapid accumulation indicative of high-mileage use such as motorway commuting or fleet operation. This moderate usage profile is generally favourable in terms of wear on major drivetrain components, though it is worth recognising that even modest mileage vehicles can suffer from age-related degradation of rubber, plastic, fluid seals, and electrical components simply through calendar ageing rather than mechanical wear alone. Given the absence of any recorded advisories, a prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on age-related deterioration that MOT testing does not necessarily flag. Tyre sidewalls should be examined closely for perishing or cracking caused by UV exposure, particularly as tyres older than five years can lose integrity even if the tread depth remains legal. The 12V battery should be tested for residual capacity, as a six-year-old vehicle may be approaching the end of typical battery service life, and any hesitation or slow cranking on a test drive could indicate weakness. Brake discs should be inspected for surface corrosion, especially on the rear axle where binding calipers can develop after periods of light use, and a test drive should include firm brake applications to detect any shudder, judder, or uneven pulling that would suggest caliper seizure or pad glazing. Fluid servicing is another area worth verifying, as time-based replacement intervals apply regardless of mileage. Coolant, brake fluid, and automatic transmission fluid on this D-generation Evoque all have calendar-based service recommendations, typically every two years for brake fluid due to its hygroscopic nature, and the service book should be examined to confirm these have been attended to. On the test drive, listen for any clonks or knocks from the suspension over uneven surfaces, which could indicate worn bushes or top mounts common to the Evoque platform, and check for any fluid leaks beneath the vehicle, particularly from the oil sump and front differential area. Finally, confirm the operation of all electronic systems, including the infotainment, terrain response settings, and parking sensors, as electrical faults are a known weak point on this model and would not necessarily be captured within the MOT record itself.
