Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Land Rover Range Rover First Edition Auto?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

What corrosion should I look for when inspecting a 2022 Land Rover Range Rover First Edition Auto?

Check brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that is expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

How are tyres and brakes typically on a 2022 Land Rover Range Rover First Edition Auto?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

Do I need an HPI check when buying a 2022 Land Rover Range Rover First Edition Auto?

Yes. The MOT history will not show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status. An HPI check covers these areas and should be part of any used car purchase.

Moderate sample. 308 vehicles on record. Figures are indicative — the specific vehicle's history matters more than these averages.

This 2022 Range Rover is underperforming on reliability: a 61.4% first-time MOT pass rate sits well below the UK average of 80%, suggesting buyers should expect to budget for repairs or remedial work before test day. The dangerous defect rate of 2.6% is reassuringly low, but the median Carhunch score of 50 reflects a model that's struggling more than peers of similar age.

At around 27,000 miles, these vehicles are running relatively low mileage for their age, yet still generating an average of 0.4 advisories per car and occasional failures—a sign that quality or durability issues are emerging early rather than being wear-and-tear problems. Before purchasing, have a pre-buy inspection carried out by a Land Rover specialist, as the first-time pass rate suggests defects are common enough to warrant professional scrutiny.

The 2022 Land Rover Range Rover First Edition Auto passes its MOT first time more often than most UK vehicles (94.1% vs ~80% average) — and when it does fail, it's usually something minor and cheap to fix.
