Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Pure Td4 (2012)
2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Pure Td4
CarHunch analysed 100 real MOT records for the 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Pure Td4. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2012 Range Rover Evoque Pure TD4 falls short of the UK average with a first-time pass rate of 74%, meaning one in four fail their MOT—a concern for a vehicle now over a decade old. The good news is that dangerous defects are absent from this cohort, so when failures do occur, they're typically minor or moderate issues rather than safety hazards.
At 100,500 miles on average, these Evoques have covered reasonable mileage for their age, yet they're averaging 0.83 failures per vehicle, suggesting wear-related problems are beginning to accumulate. If you're considering one, budget for repairs and have a pre-purchase inspection focus on the diesel engine, transmission, and suspension—the typical weak points on high-mileage Evoques in this generation.
What to check before buying a 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Pure Td4
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.
