2020 Land Rover Range Rover Velar 2.0L Petrol · YK70 CSR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT on June 25, 2025. However, the maintenance trend shows a reactive rather than proactive approach. The car failed the initial test just ten miles prior at 35,146 miles due to headlamp misalignment, a faulty wiper, and multiple tyre defects. While these issues were rectified to secure the pass, the record indicates the owner only addressed faults after a formal failure occurred rather than performing routine preventative checks. At 35,156 miles after six years, the Velar reflects low annual usage, averaging approximately 5,860 miles per year. There is a significant gap in recorded data between the July 2024 test at 20,305 miles and the June 2025 test, during which nearly 14,851 miles were covered. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can lead to flat-spotting on tyres or the degradation of rubber components if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer must perform a close physical inspection of the tyres, as the 2025 test flagged three tyres as worn to the legal limit or on the edges. This specific pattern suggests potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent further premature wear. The headlamp aim and wiper assembly should be checked to ensure the previous repairs were thorough. Given the low mileage, also inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or binding calipers caused by infrequent use to ensure the stopping system remains reliable.
