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 2003 Land Rover Freelander (AM53 DCV) between December 2006 and April 2019.

The record contains 13 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 04 April 2019 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (30 issues), Tyres (15 issues), Lighting (14 issues), Windscreen (12 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 53 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 Rear Tyre has a tear, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure 225/55/17 97H (4.1.D.1b)”; “Centre Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (7.1.2)”; “Offside Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.2.B.1f)”.
