2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · XT07 LOR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a persistent mechanical issue that remains unresolved. While the most recent test in February 2026 at 111,060 miles passed, the history reveals a recurring oil leak from the rear differential that has been noted in three consecutive inspections. This indicates that while the leak is not currently major enough to fail an MOT, the underlying condition has not been rectified over the last two years. At 111,060 miles over twelve years, the Land Rover has averaged approximately 9,255 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. There is a notable gap in testing between February 2023 and January 2024, where the vehicle covered over 3,200 miles in a short period. This period coincided with a failure in early 2024 due to corroded brake pipes and a faulty tyre pressure monitoring system, both of which appear to have been addressed to secure the subsequent passes. A prospective buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the rear differential to assess the rate of the oil leak and check for signs of internal component wear. The previous failure in 2024 regarding corroded brake pipes suggests that the braking system may be prone to rust, so a thorough check of all fluid lines for further degradation is necessary. Additionally, because front tyres were previously flagged for uneven wear and edges in 2024, the current alignment and suspension bushings should be verified to ensure there are no lingering issues affecting the drivetrain.
