2023 Land Rover R-Rover Sport DYN SE D Mhev A 3.0L Diesel · VA73 PNK

The vehicle currently presents a stable and fully roadworthy status following its most recent MOT test on 22 June 2026 at 23,968 miles, where it passed without any defects. The maintenance trend is clearly resolving, as the failure just one week prior on 15 June 2026 at 23,945 miles has been promptly addressed. That earlier test flagged dangerous tyre condition failures on both front wheels, specifically cuts deep enough to reach the ply or cords, which necessitated immediate replacement before the subsequent clean pass. This indicates a reactive but effective correction of a critical defect. Accumulating 23,968 miles over three years results in an annual average of roughly 7,989 miles, a typical usage pattern for this age of vehicle. The recorded mileage progression shows a tight window between tests, with only 23 miles covered between the 15 June and 22 June 2026 checks, purely reflecting the short journey for the retest itself. No significant gaps or sudden spikes appear in the recorded odometer readings, suggesting consistent, light-to-moderate use rather than prolonged periods of standing or high-mileage fleet driving. A buyer should inspect the front suspension components and wheel alignment, as tyre cuts severe enough to expose the cords often result from sharp kerb impacts or road defects, but can occasionally point to misalignment causing structural rubbing. Examine the replacement tyres fitted for brand quality and matching specifications to ensure the previous owner fitted appropriate parts rather than budget compromises. While the recent MOT confirms structural integrity and no corrosion or mechanical faults were flagged, verifying the condition of the inner front wheel arches and suspension bushes will determine whether the tyre damage was an isolated incident or symptomatic of a broader lack of care.
