UK

This 1996 Range Rover HSE is not included in the DVLA's light-vehicle MOT database—these vehicles were typically registered as heavy commercial vehicles and are tested under a separate DVSA regime that falls outside standard MOT statistics. What we do know is that the 471 examples tracked here show a median mileage of 182,152 miles, suggesting survivors from this era are well-used workhorses rather than pampered garage queens. Any 1996 Range Rover you encounter today will be nearly 30 years old and likely to have been through serious use; without reliable MOT data available, your assessment must rely on full mechanical inspection, service history, and whether the specific vehicle has been maintained to the standards these notoriously expensive machines demand. Budget heavily for specialist inspection and factor in that parts, fuel consumption, and repair costs are substantially higher than modern equivalents.

MOT statistics not available

We have 471 1996 Land Rover Range Rover Hse Auto vehicles on record, but none have light-vehicle MOT history in our data source.

There are a few reasons this can happen:

  • Heavy commercial vehicle — trucks, buses and coaches over 3.5 tonnes are tested under the DVSA annual HGV/PSV regime, which uses a separate database not included in our data source
  • Imported vehicles — vehicles registered abroad and recently brought to the UK may have no UK MOT history yet
  • MOT-exempt — vehicles manufactured before 1986 qualify under the 40-year rolling exemption; some specialist and agricultural vehicles are also exempt
  • Never used on public roads — some vehicles are registered but kept off-road and have never required an MOT
