MOT Analysis

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

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Land Rover Discovery (T266 EGX) between February 2006 and June 2018.

The record contains 12 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 08 June 2018 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (15 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Windscreen (9 issues), Steering (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 34 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: “Steering box has excessive free play detected at the steering wheel (steering box fitted) (2.3 (a) (i))”; “Rear Stop lamp(s) all not working (4.3.1 (a) (iii))”; “Nearside Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”.
