Land Rover Range Rover Evoque (2018)
2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque
CarHunch analysed 16,963 real MOT records for the 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2018 Range Rover Evoque passes its MOT first time at 88.9%, well ahead of the UK average of 80%, signalling solid reliability across the 16,963 vehicles tested. However, nearly one in five has recorded a dangerous defect at some point, which is worth factoring into your inspection checklist when viewing a used example.
At 40,195 miles average, these Evoques show typical wear for their age and haven't been thrashed. The 0.63 failures per vehicle is low, but the 5.4 advisories per car suggests minor issues crop up regularly—suspension, trim, and electronics tend to need attention—so budget for small repairs beyond the headline pass rate. Request the full MOT history from any seller and have an independent inspection focus on those advisory patterns rather than assuming a high pass rate means trouble-free ownership.
What to check before buying a 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque
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.
