MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Land Rover Discovery (R586 AOP) between March 2006 and October 2025.

The record contains 18 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 10 October 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (11 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Windscreen (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues), Lighting (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Trailer electrical socket (13 pin) not operating the trailer lamps as intended (1.9.4)”; “Nearside Headlamp not working on dipped beam (1.7.5a)”; “Front registration plate character(s) incorrectly spaced (6.3.4a)”.
