Our Verdict
This is a solid option for a buyer seeking a relatively low-mileage diesel Evoque. The recent MOT history shows a clean record with no recurring defects, making it a sensible choice for this model.
When inspecting this specific 2.0L diesel Evoque, check the service history thoroughly to ensure oil changes have been performed at the correct intervals, as this is vital for Land Rover diesel engines. While the MOT history is clean, you should verify that the timing belt and water pump have been addressed if they are due according to the manufacturer's schedule.
Negotiate based on the upcoming service requirements and the age of the tyres. Although no MOT failures were recorded for tyres on this vehicle, they are a common failure point for the wider Evoque model range. Ensure you check the electronic systems and infotainment, which are standard areas of interest for this model year.
Running costs for this 2.0L diesel Evoque will be influenced by its tax band and insurance group, which typically sit in the mid-range for premium compact SUVs. Fuel economy should be reasonable for a diesel of this size, particularly for motorway driving.
Maintenance costs can be higher than non-premium brands, especially regarding specialist Land Rover parts. You should budget for regular servicing and potential wear-and-tear items like brake discs and tyres, which are the most common failure reasons for this model type in our aggregate data.
Focus your inspection on the braking system and tyres. While this specific vehicle passed its 2025 MOT without defects, the aggregate data for the Range Rover Evoque shows that brake discs and tyres are the most frequent causes of MOT failure. Check the depth of the tread and the condition of the brake pads and discs.
Additionally, inspect the headlamps for clarity and functionality, as headlamp issues are a top failure reason for this model. Given the diesel engine, listen for any unusual noises from the engine bay during a cold start to ensure smooth operation.
This 2016 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque (WG16AWU) is finished in brown and features a 2.0L diesel engine. With 56,928 miles recorded at its most recent MOT in October 2025, it has covered slightly more than the model average of 7,429 miles per year. The MOT history is notable for having no recorded defects across five consecutive tests, providing a consistent record of compliance.
The Range Rover Evoque shows an average MOT pass rate of 86.1% across 139,430 analysed vehicles, with common issues involving brakes, tyres, and lighting.
