2023 Land Rover R Rover Sport Frst Ed D MHEV A
CarHunch is tracking 252 2023 Land Rover R Rover Sport Frst Ed D MHEV A vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 2023 Range Rover Sport is failing its MOT at an alarming rate: only 8.5% pass on their first attempt versus the UK average of 80%, which is a serious red flag for a vehicle this new. At just over 20,000 miles on the clock, these cars shouldn't be racking up failures this early, and the zero dangerous defects recorded suggests the issues are systemic rather than safety-critical—likely pointing to electrical gremlins or build quality problems common to new Land Rovers.
With zero average failures and advisories recorded across the cohort, the first-test failure rate appears driven by multiple minor defects per vehicle rather than one catastrophic issue. Before committing to this model, get a pre-purchase inspection that specifically targets the hybrid powertrain electrics and any software integration issues, as this pass rate suggests teething troubles that may persist into year two.
We have 252 2023 Land Rover R Rover Sport Frst Ed D MHEV A vehicles on record but don't have enough MOT test data to show reliable statistics for this cohort.
What to check before buying a 2023 Land Rover R Rover Sport Frst Ed D MHEV A
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
