2023 Land Rover Range Rover Sprt DYN SE Phev A 3.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · WM06 NEY

This three-year-old Range Rover Sport PHEV presents an essentially clean roadworthiness record, with its single recorded MOT on 15 May 2026 resulting in a pass and only two minor advisories: front inner brake pads wearing thin on both sides, and slight sidewall damage to the nearside front outer tyre. For a vehicle of this complexity and weight, a first test free of failures or suspension and corrosion concerns is a reassuring baseline, and there is no evidence of any worsening trend given this is the sole test on file. The defining characteristic here is usage intensity rather than neglect. At 59,622 miles in roughly three years, the car has averaged close to 19,900 miles annually, well above the UK norm. That kind of accumulation on a heavy plug-in hybrid SUV places sustained demand on the braking system, tyres, suspension bushes and drivetrain, and it is consistent with the brake pad advisory already appearing at the first test. High motorway-biased mileage is generally kinder to a vehicle than short urban trips, but consumables on a car of this mass wear quickly regardless, and the recorded pad wear at under 60,000 miles confirms that. The front inner brake pads wearing thin on both sides warrant immediate attention. Inner pads often wear faster than outers and can indicate a caliper slide pin beginning to stick, so a buyer should budget for a front pad replacement imminently and have the calipers checked for free movement at the same time. On a test drive, listen for any squeal or grinding under braking, feel for judder through the pedal or steering wheel that would suggest disc wear or warping, and check whether the car pulls to one side under firm braking, which could point to an imbalance between the calipers. The nearside front tyre sidewall damage should be inspected closely before purchase. Sidewall harm cannot be safely repaired, and on a heavy vehicle driven at this annual rate a compromised tyre is a genuine safety concern, so factor in the cost of a replacement tyre of the correct load and speed rating, ideally matched across the axle. Beyond the flagged items, given the mileage, it is prudent to check for suspension knocks over uneven surfaces, verify the hybrid system operates smoothly in both electric and petrol modes, and confirm a full service history commensurate with the rapid mileage accumulation.
