2017 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.0L Diesel · X7 SAN

The vehicle remains technically roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward deferred upkeep of consumable components. The most recent test on May 18, 2026, at 61,212 miles, flagged thin rear brake pads and worn discs, alongside a nearside front tyre reaching the legal wear limit. This represents a departure from the clean records seen in 2024 and 2025, indicating that service items are now reaching their replacement intervals. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. Between May 2023 and May 2026, the car covered 14,214 miles, showing steady use rather than long periods of inactivity. The failure in May 2023 at 46,998 miles due to a structural tear in the offside rear tyre and a cut on the nearside front suggests a period where basic condition checks were overlooked, though the subsequent two defect-free tests indicate these specific issues were addressed. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system, as the recent advisory of worn discs and thin pads suggests a full axle overhaul may be required shortly. The nearside front tyre being worn on the edge points to a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent premature tyre degradation. Given the age and model of the vehicle, checking the underbody for signs of corrosion or oil leaks is also essential, as the MOT record does not currently highlight structural integrity concerns.
