Land Rover Range Rover

The Range Rover (L405 to 2021, all-new L460 from 2022) is the original luxury SUV - the benchmark for serene, commanding, go-anywhere opulence. Petrol, diesel and powerful plug-in hybrids feature, the L460's PHEVs offering real electric range. Nothing else quite matches its blend of off-road ability and limousine comfort, but it's a complex, expensive machine: buy on impeccable history and check the electronics and air suspension closely.

Forecourt score

Value 70 · Reliability 26 · Insurance 22

The Land Rover Range Rover holds its value well and is dearer to run than most. Its MOT-based reliability is average, 67 out of 100, ahead of 26% of the cars we track. On three-year value retention it ranks better than 70% of models.

The Forecourt score blends how this car ranks against the catalogue on value retention, reliability and insurance cost (weighted 40/40/20). Higher is better; running cost is not yet folded in.

Indicative annual comprehensive premium estimates. The 'Typical' figure represents an average UK driver in each age band; Lower and Higher risk show the realistic spread driven by factors UK insurers legitimately price on (postcode, occupation, claims history, NCB, voluntary excess, modifications). Based on 10,000 miles/yr, £250 voluntary excess, and the no-claims bonus selected above. Always get individual quotes before buying.

Safety rating

Euro NCAP's independent crash-test rating for the Land Rover Range Rover, from its 2022 assessment.

5/5
TEST YEAR2022
Rating expired (test protocol superseded)

The passenger compartment of the Range Rover remained stable in the frontal offset test.

Independent crash-test data from Euro NCAP. Star ratings reflect the test protocol of the year shown — newer protocols are stricter, so a 5-star from 2024 represents a higher bar than a 5-star from 2014.

MOT outlook

How this model fares at its MOT as it ages — from 2,150,750 real DVSA test records.

MOT pass rate by age

A 3-year-old Range Rover passes its MOT 87.6% of the time; by 25 years that has slipped to 73.3%. The y-axis is zoomed to this model’s range so the trend is readable.

Things owners say

  • 01The diesels are the long-haul and towing default; the L460 P440e/P510e PHEVs offer genuine EV miles.
  • 02Air suspension, electronics and the sheer complexity are the known cost areas - history is everything.
  • 03The L460 is a big step on for cabin quality and refinement; the L405 is the value used buy if checked carefully.

Safety recalls

Manufacturers occasionally issue safety recalls to fix a fault free of charge. You can check whether the Land Rover Range Rover, or your exact vehicle, has any outstanding recalls on the official DVSA service.

Check on GOV.UK

Opens the Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency recall checker. Choose the make, model and year of manufacture — no registration needed.

Theft risk

A general indicator from UK 2025 theft data and this car’s characteristics — not a prediction for any one vehicle.

Whole-car theft

Higher

The Land Rover Range Rover is a long-standing target for thieves (UK 2025 data). Keyless entry on later cars makes relay theft the usual method.

Parts theft

Higher

Hybrid versions are a catalytic-converter target — a hybrid cat is rich in precious metals and can be cut out in about a minute.

Worth doing

  • Keep keys in a Faraday pouch and away from the front door to block relay attacks.
  • A catalytic-converter guard or forensic marking makes a hybrid far less appealing to cut.
  • A visible steering lock is a cheap, strong deterrent on a frequently-targeted car.

Clean-air zones

Whether driving a Land Rover Range Rover into a UK clean-air zone will cost you anything. Rules use the same Euro standard across most zones — petrol from 2006 and diesel from 2015 onwards are exempt; pure electric is always exempt.

Large network

Network size relative to the UK's largest (Land Rover is 2.4% of all franchised outlets)

Servicing, parts and warranty work are easy to find UK-wide, and most independent garages know the brand well — which keeps maintenance competitive.

For context, the UK has roughly 4,500 franchised car-dealer outlets in total, plus about 15,500 independent garages.

Common questions

Land Rover Range Rover, answered from the data

Is the Land Rover Range Rover reliable?
The Land Rover Range Rover scores 67/100 on Forecourt's MOT-based reliability measure, ahead of 38% of the cars we track. That is computed from 2,150,750 real DVSA MOT test results.
How much does a used Land Rover Range Rover cost?
A 2023 Land Rover Range Rover with around 29,199 miles is worth roughly £88,550 today (typical range £79,950–£97,150). Dealer forecourt prices sit higher and part-exchange offers lower; newer or lower-mileage examples cost more.
How quickly does the Land Rover Range Rover depreciate?
A new Land Rover Range Rover typically loses about 36% of its value over the first three years, then depreciates more slowly. Buying at three to five years old avoids the steepest part of the curve.
What insurance group is the Land Rover Range Rover?
The Land Rover Range Rover sits in insurance group 30 of 50 — the middle of the scale. Exact premiums depend on the trim (some versions sit a few groups higher or lower), your age, postcode and no-claims history.
What goes wrong on a used Land Rover Range Rover?
The most common age-related issues we track for the Land Rover Range Rover are: brakes (typically around over 100k miles, £150-£500 to put right); suspension (typically around over 100k miles, £150-£450 to put right); tyres & wheels (typically around over 100k miles, £80-£500 to put right). A full service history and a recent MOT with no advisories are the best protection.
What does the Land Rover Range Rover cost to run?
Expect around 30 mpg combined, £195 a year in road tax, about £290 for a standard annual service. The full cost-of-ownership table above breaks this down per year and per mile for the exact year and mileage you choose.
