MOT Analysis

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

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Land Rover Freelander (YH05 VCA) between May 2009 and July 2018.

The record contains 11 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 14 July 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: Brakes (27 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 43 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: “Offside Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn trailing arm front bush (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn trailing arm front bush (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
