Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque R Dyn D 4x2?

Moderate sample. 463 vehicles on record. Figures are indicative — the specific vehicle's history matters more than these averages.

This 2021 Range Rover Evoque diesel is genuinely reliable, passing its MOT first time in 90.2% of cases—well above the UK average of 80%. The 13% rate of dangerous defects is acceptable and not a major concern for buyers, though it's worth a thorough pre-purchase inspection.

At an average mileage of just under 32,000 miles for a three-year-old car, these are lightly used examples, which explains the strong pass rate. Most failures are minor (0.29 per vehicle on average), but advisories are fairly common at 1.9 per car—typically wear items like brakes or suspension—so budget for maintenance beyond the MOT itself. Check the service history carefully before buying, as diesel engines reward consistent servicing.

The 2021 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque R Dyn D 4x2 passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (91% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.

⚠️ 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 91% 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 1.9 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 463 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.
