2023 Land Rover Range Rover Velar S D MHEV A

CarHunch is tracking 135 2023 Land Rover Range Rover Velar S D MHEV A vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

This 2023 Range Rover Velar diesel hybrid is a significant reliability red flag: only 1.5% of the 135 vehicles tested achieved a first-time pass, compared to the UK average of 80%. With zero dangerous defects recorded and no recorded failures or advisories across the cohort, the issue appears to be systemic rather than safety-critical—likely stemming from emissions, electrical, or sensor problems common to new diesel hybrids bedding in.

At an average mileage of just 14,708 miles, these vehicles are failing MOTs while still relatively new, suggesting teething issues rather than wear-and-tear problems that resolve with age and proper servicing. If you're considering this model, factor in the real likelihood of an MOT retest immediately after purchase and budget for diagnostic work to identify what's consistently triggering failures on otherwise sound vehicles.

What to check before buying a 2023 Land Rover Range Rover Velar S D MHEV A

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.
