2016 Land Rover Range Rover 4.4L Diesel · T7 ADL

The vehicle's current roadworthiness is rated as good , but the maintenance history indicates a worsening trend in suspension and braking components. The most recent test on 2026-01-19 was passed at 62,937 miles, yet the 2025-01-21 test at 59,849 miles failed due to significant corrosion of the front inner brake discs, a condition that has persisted since the previous 2024-01-17 test at 56,677 miles. This pattern of failing the MOT in the same year and accelerating mileage suggests that basic upkeep was skipped, leading to accelerated wear on critical safety elements. Mileage accumulation over roughly ten years demonstrates that the vehicle has experienced rapid mileage growth, which correlates with the accumulation of wear on consumables and structural parts. The 62,937 miles recorded for the 2016 model indicate that the vehicle was driven for approximately 6,294 miles per year, a rate that is generally consistent with its age but may have been influenced by usage patterns. The rapid increase in mileage since the 2024-01-17 test at 56,677 miles highlights that the vehicle has not maintained a stable maintenance schedule; instead, it has accumulated significant wear on the drivetrain and suspension bushings, a trend that could soon lead to a failure of the suspension or brakes. Given the recurring faults in the brake discs and the deteriorating condition of the windscreen wiper blade, a buyer must inspect the car in person to assess the structural integrity of the suspension and the condition of the brake components. The 2024-01-17 test failure specifically flagged a split or insecure joint in the rear drive shaft, a structural risk that requires immediate repair before the vehicle is driven again. The 2025-01-21 test failure on the front inner brake discs confirms that the brake system is currently compromised and that the vehicle cannot be used with the same level of confidence as it was on the 2026-01-19 test. A thorough inspection is required to determine if the suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake discs need replacement to restore the vehicle to a safe roadworthiness standard.
