I am having some seriously bad luck in my search for a Range Rover. The car for sale that has caught my eye is a Range Rover Vogue with registration number EU57JXJ. If you check the MOT history of this car it shows as a Range Rover Sport. I queried this with the seller and he confirmed the registration number is correct and the V5 shows the correct model and the model is also correct when buying the tax for the car. He thinks it was an admin error at some stage that hasn’t been corrected.
Is this a red flag and the car should be avoided or can this easily be corrected?

If it were me, I'd walk away and find something else. Too much of a red flag for me.

The RRS ( L320 ) and the Range Rover Vogue ( L322 )are two totally different cars. Personally I'd view the car, why would an error input on an MOT history be a red flag?
It's not like you can take the badge off a RRS and then convince buyers that it's a FFRR...........
