2020 Land Rover Range Rover Velar 2.0L Diesel · TR10 EMB

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than preventative care. The latest test in September 2025 at 58,430 miles indicated a pass despite an advisory for front brake discs being worn, pitted, or scored. While the vehicle is legally roadworthy, the presence of surface corrosion and wear suggests the braking components are reaching the end of their functional life and will likely require replacement shortly. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual usage for this age, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. Between the September 2023 test at 32,571 miles and the September 2024 test at 46,989 miles, the car covered 14,418 miles, followed by another 11,441 miles leading up to the September 2025 inspection. This steady accumulation suggests regular road use rather than long periods of stagnation which helps maintain seals and drivetrain components. A buyer must focus specifically on the offside front wheel bearing, which caused a failure in September 2024 at 46,989 miles. Although the vehicle passed the following year, wheel bearing issues often progress from minor roughness to mechanical failure if not properly replaced. The inspector should check for any humming noises or play during a test drive. Additionally, the pitted front brake discs noted in the most recent record warrant a physical inspection of the calipers and pad thickness to ensure wear is not uneven or compromised by the disc surface condition.
