2014 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Dynamicsd4a

CarHunch analysed 247 real MOT records for the 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Dynamicsd4a. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This 2014 Range Rover Evoque Diesel has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 57.1%, significantly below the UK average of 80%, which signals genuine reliability concerns for a ten-year-old model. The good news is that dangerous defects are not a factor here—none of the 247 vehicles analysed recorded a dangerous fault—but buyers should expect this model to fail its MOT more often than most cars in its age group.

At 81,915 miles average, these Evoques are running higher mileage than typical for their age, yet they're failing with only 0.32 failures per vehicle on average, suggesting the failures are concentrated in a subset of problematic examples rather than universal wear. Before buying, have a pre-purchase inspection focus on the drivetrain and transmission, as the diesel engines in this generation are prone to expensive faults; a full service history and evidence of regular maintenance will be essential to avoid picking up one of the consistently troublesome units.

What to check before buying a 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Dynamicsd4a

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.
