What it means if you are buying one
The petrol Land Rover Range Rover Evoque is the stronger side of this model on MOT data. Still judge the individual car, but the fuel type is a mild point in its favour. Check the exact car, decode the VIN and check the mileage before you bid.
Mileage is part of the answer
The average petrol Land Rover Range Rover Evoque had covered 53,471 miles at test, against 73,787 for the diesel. That is around average, so condition and service history will tell you more than the odometer does.
Fuel type and mileage are tangled together: diesels are usually bought by higher-mileage drivers, so some of any gap between fuels is the miles rather than the engine. The per-year figures on the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
