Looking at a Range Rover?

Population figures cannot tell you whether one particular car is taxed, MOT-valid or safe to buy.

Check its registration free for the official tax, MOT and mileage record. If the car is still worth pursuing, the optional £9.99 full history check adds outstanding-finance, stolen and insurance write-off checks.

Wondering whether one particular Range Rover is off the road? A free SORN check shows whether it is currently SORN, taxed or untaxed.

Is the Range Rover disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 90,993 in 2021 Q3 and stand at 90,968 in 2026 Q1, flat 0%. That is up 1% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 31,020 are declared SORN — 1 in 4 of the 121,988 still on the DVLA record is off the road, laid up, part-restored or waiting to be sold.

A falling population is worth knowing before you buy: it usually means fewer donor cars, fewer specialists and slower parts supply, and it is why a good example of a scarce model can hold its price while a neglected one is hard to sell at any price.

Range Rover MOT pass rate

In 2024, 77.9% of 75,288 Land Rover Range Rover MOTs passed first time — above the 71.2% UK average. Pass rate moves with age: 89.5% of cars aged 3–5 years passed first time, against 69.3% aged 15–30 years.

  • Suspension Arms — 4.8% of tests. Worn arms or bushes. A common age-related repair that affects handling and tyre wear.
  • Condition — 3.9% of tests. Corrosion, damage or wear on a tested component. Worth seeing in person, as the cost ranges from trivial to structural.
  • Brake Performance — 2.5% of tests. The brakes underperformed on the rolling road. Expect brake work rather than an adjustment.
  • Mechanical Brake Components — 2.4% of tests. Worn discs, pads or callipers. Routine wear, but it should be priced into the deal.

Full age bands and failure notes are on the Land Rover Range Rover MOT pass rate page.
