2015 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.2L Diesel · WJ52 WAJ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2025-05-09 at 92,895 miles confirms it remains roadworthy, with no defects recorded across the past two tests. The absence of advisories or failings in either the 2024 or 2025 tests suggests a stable maintenance pattern, though the duplicate entry for the 2024 test—one pass and one fail on the same mileage—indicates a potential administrative oversight rather than a mechanical issue. No recurring faults appear in the record, and the vehicle has not been subject to major advisory categories such as suspension alignment, drivetrain leaks, or structural corrosion. That said, the lack of advisories does not preclude hidden wear; a thorough inspection of high-mileage components is essential. The mileage progression shows consistent usage, averaging around 8,400 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. The gap between the 2023 and 2022 tests—roughly 11 months—aligns with the standard MOT cycle, and there are no abrupt jumps or prolonged periods of inactivity that might suggest neglect. The only anomaly is the duplicate MOT entries in 2024, which may indicate a clerical error rather than a pattern of deferred maintenance. No advisories or failings in prior tests suggest the vehicle was driven regularly without extreme stress on critical systems. Given the lack of recorded faults, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should centre on high-mileage components prone to wear at this age. The suspension—particularly coil springs, bushes, and dampers—should be checked for uneven sagging, excessive play, or corrosion, as these are common failure points on this model. Brake systems warrant scrutiny, especially rear calipers and discs, for binding or uneven wear, given the vehicle’s off-road heritage. Structural integrity, including underbody corrosion around wheel arches and sills, must also be assessed, as this is a critical failure risk for Land Rover models exposed to varied conditions. Finally, the drivetrain, including transfer case seals and differential fluid condition, should be inspected for leaks or degraded performance, as these are often overlooked but critical for longevity.
