2017 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.0L Diesel · WR17 GWD

The September 2025 MOT at 71,919 miles confirmed roadworthiness, but the rear brakes were recorded as imbalanced and required adjustment, indicating a pending corrective action while the vehicle remains legally compliant. Mileage has risen steadily from 33,345 miles in May 2020 to 71,919 miles by September 2025, averaging just under 8,000 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s nine‑year age and shows no abrupt spikes in usage. A buyer should therefore examine the front tyres for excessive wear or uneven tread patterns, inspect the rear brake assembly for binding calipers or disc condition, and verify the alignment of the headlamp aim, as the 2023 failure noted an elevated aim and the 2025 test flagged rear brake imbalance; the repeated tyre wear and the 2023 headlamp aim defect suggest potential wear in the suspension bushes or coil springs, so a close check of those components is advisable, and the 2020 wiper failures indicate possible wear in the wiper linkage or motor, which should be inspected. Finally, the inspector should assess structural integrity for corrosion on the chassis, examine the exhaust system for rust or leaks, and confirm that the suspension components, including bushes and springs, show no signs of binding or excessive play, while also testing the brake discs for scoring or corrosion.
