2022 Land Rover R Rover Velar R-DYN SE Phev A 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · YC22 EYA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy having passed its most recent MOT test in March 2026, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from mechanical component wear to age-related degradation. The latest inspection at 43,623 miles flagged three tyres for cracking and perishing across the nearside rear, offside rear, and offside front positions. This indicates that the vehicle is reaching an age where rubber components are beginning to fail despite the relatively low annual mileage. At 43,623 miles over four years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 11,000 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage for a premium PHEV. The interval between the March 2025 test at 33,681 miles and the March 2026 test shows a steady accumulation of exactly ten thousand hundred miles. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stationary neglect which generally benefits battery health and seal integrity. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the braking system, as the 2025 test at 33,681 miles noted pitted and scored front front brake discs. While these were not considered a failure at the time, the presence of corrosion on the discs often suggests infrequent braking use or storage in a damp environment. The recent flagging of perishing tyres in the 2026 test necessitates a thorough check of the sidewalls for structural cracking to ensure the rubber is not compromised beyond surface wear.
