Scrap My Land Rover Range Rover Sport

This page covers what affects the value of a Range Rover Sport, which versions meet clean air zone standards and the paperwork for scrapping one.

Range Rover Sport generations and clean air zones

The oldest Land Rover Range Rover Sport cars are now around 21 years old. Age matters when you are deciding whether to keep one, because older cars are the ones most likely to fall short of London's ULEZ and the clean air zones in other cities, where a non-compliant vehicle pays a daily charge.

Generation	Years	petrol ULEZ	diesel ULEZ
L320Facelift 2010	2005–2013	Depends on the car — check	Usually not compliant
L494Aluminium body; plug-in hybrid P400e from 2018	2013–2022	Usually compliant	Depends on the car — check
L461	2022–present	Usually compliant	Usually compliant

Rule of thumb only: petrol cars generally meet the standard from 2006 (many from 2001), diesels from September 2015. Hybrids follow their petrol engine. Check your registration with the TfL vehicle checker, and see what to do with a non-compliant car.

What a scrap Land Rover Range Rover Sport is worth

The starting point for any scrap valuation is weight: a Range Rover Sport weighs roughly 2.10 tonnes to 2.85 tonnes, most of it steel. On top of that, the collection company looks at which parts can be reused or sold on, the car's condition, and whether anything is missing.

To put a figure on it, enter a Range Rover Sport's weight and a price per tonne in the scrap car value calculator — it fills in the typical Range Rover Sport weight for you.

Catalytic converter: it contains precious metals and is part of the value. Say if it has been removed or stolen.
Working parts: an engine, gearbox, panels or lights that are in demand for other Range Rover Sport owners can add value even when the car itself is not worth repairing.
Condition and completeness: missing wheels, a removed engine or heavy damage reduce the value, so describe the car accurately when you enquire.

The valuation is given ‘subject to contract’ and confirmed when the car is inspected on collection. More on how scrap value is worked out and scrap car prices.

Scrapping a hybrid Range Rover Sport

Hybrid and electric versions have a high-voltage battery that must be removed and handled by trained staff at an authorised treatment facility. Do not try to disconnect or remove it yourself. Tell us the fuel type when you enquire so the right collection company and facility are used. More in scrapping an electric or hybrid car.

Paperwork for scrapping your car

Check you can scrap it. If there is finance outstanding, it must be settled first — scrapping a car on finance.
Keep your number plate if you want it. A private registration has to be taken off before the car is scrapped — how to keep it.
Have the V5C and ID ready. No log book? You can still scrap it.
Tell DVLA. The keeper must tell DVLA the vehicle has gone to an authorised treatment facility, or risk being fined £1,000 (GOV.UK). Any full months of tax left are refunded — how to tell DVLA.
Keep the Certificate of Destruction. It proves the car was scrapped — what it is.

Who does what

Scrap A Car For Cash (operated by Lead Stack Ltd, company number 15877625) takes your enquiry and passes it to an affiliated vehicle collection company that covers your area.
The collection company values the vehicle, collects it free of charge and pays you on collection, in line with the terms you agree with them.
If the vehicle is completely scrapped, that happens at an authorised treatment facility (ATF), which gives you a Certificate of Destruction. A vehicle that is repaired and resold instead does not get one.
