Land Rover Service History: Why It Matters

If you're thinking about buying a Land Rover, checking its service history is essential. This tells you if the car has been well maintained or potentially neglected. A full service history means the car received regular maintenance like oil changes, brake checks, and fluid top-ups—all the things that keep it running smoothly.

Many land rover models come with online service records, so you can verify if it was serviced at an official land rover dealership or a trusted garage. If the service history is missing or incomplete, it could mean the car wasn't maintained properly, which might lead to costly repairs later.

How to Check a Land Rover's Service History

Checking a land rover's service history is straightforward. Start by looking at the service book or digital service records. Many newer land rover cars store this information online, so you can check through the manufacturer's official website or by asking the previous owner for records. You can also use our free service history check by entering your land rover's registration above.
