2017 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · WB58 ASH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward worsening regarding suspension-related components. The most recent inspection in June 2025 identified an advisory for a severely deteriorated nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint dust cover. While the vehicle passed without defects, this indication suggests that rubber components and suspension artwork are beginning to fail due to age and environmental exposure despite the low distance travelled. The mileage profile is significantly low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,731 miles per year. This usage pattern is consistent across the records, moving from 34,040 miles in mid-2021 to 42,580 miles in 2025. While low mileage generally implies less wear on the engine and drivetrain, infrequent use can often lead to the accelerated degradation of rubber parts, seals, and fluids, which is consistent with the specific suspension issues noted in the latest test result. A prospective buyer should conduct a physical inspection focused on the front suspension assembly. Given the advisory on the ball joint dust cover, it is necessary to check all control arms and bushes for signs of tearing or play in the ball joints. The history from 2022 also noted an issue with uneven tyre wear on the nearside front, so a professional alignment check should be performed to ensure that geometry issues are not causing premature degradation of new tyres.
