Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque D 4x2?

This 2020 Range Rover Evoque D achieves an 85.2% first-time pass rate, which sits 5.2 percentage points above the UK average—a solid result suggesting these diesels are well-built. The dangerous defect rate of 17.7% is slightly elevated but not alarming, and shouldn't deter most buyers provided they inspect any purchase carefully.

At 32,097 miles median, these Evoques are running lower than typical for their age, which partly explains the strong pass rate and helps you avoid vehicles that have been thrashed. The average of 0.58 failures per vehicle is reassuring, though advisories average 3.5 per test—mostly minor niggles rather than serious faults—so budget for routine maintenance items when you buy.

The 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque D 4x2 passes its MOT first time at roughly the UK average rate (86.7%) — solid but worth checking this vehicle's history carefully.

⚠️ Around 1 in 8 of these vehicles have had a dangerous MOT failure at some point — usually tyres or brakes, and often a one-off issue rather than a persistent problem. The group stats won't tell you which one you're looking at.

For context

✅ Good baseline reliability. A 86.7% first-time pass rate puts this well above the UK average — it's a well-sorted vehicle in this age bracket.

🔧 Expect consumable spend. An average of 3.5 advisories per vehicle tells you wear items (tyres, brakes) get flagged regularly. Budget for them — they're not surprises.

🔍 The dangerous defect figure is real. Most are one-off tyre failures or brake issues — not structural problems. But it's exactly why checking the individual vehicle's history is essential, not optional.

These stats describe 854 vehicles as a group. The specific vehicle you're looking at could be the one good example or the one outlier. Run its registration to find out.
