2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · TA55 HAE

The 2026‑04‑23 MOT at 92,282 miles confirms the 2014 Range Rover Sport as roadworthy, with no critical defects recorded; the only noted items are rear inner tyre wear near the legal limit and a corroded fuel‑tank guard. This follows a 2025‑05‑02 failure that listed worn front suspension arm pins/bushes, the same fuel‑tank corrosion, an incorrect registration plate and an SRS warning lamp, after which the vehicle was re‑tested and passed, indicating that previous mechanical concerns have been addressed and the overall maintenance trend remains stable. Mileage has risen from 13,603 miles in March 2017 to 92,282 miles in April 2026, averaging about 7,700 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s 12‑year age and typical usage; the early jump from 13,603 to 33,182 miles between 2017 and 2018 reflects a period of heavier use, but subsequent annual increments have been consistent, with no extended periods of stagnation evident in the record. Recurring issues include persistent tyre wear on the inner edges of both rear tyres, suggesting possible alignment or suspension geometry problems, and ongoing corrosion of the fuel‑tank guard, which points to exposure to moisture and may indicate broader chassis rust if left unchecked. The 2025‑05‑02 failure also highlighted worn front suspension arm pins/bushes and a broken side‑step bracket, while the 2020 MOT noted pitted brake discs and near‑limit tyre wear on all wheels, indicating that consumable components have been monitored but not replaced proactively. A buyer should therefore inspect the condition of the front suspension arm pins and bushes for play or corrosion, examine the fuel‑tank guard and surrounding chassis for rust, verify tyre tread depth and wear pattern, assess brake disc thickness and surface quality, check the integrity of the side‑step brackets and any structural mounting points, confirm correct registration plate fitting, and test the supplementary restraint system warning lamp to ensure airbag functionality is intact.
