MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Land Rover Freelander (BF53 UAB) between August 2006 and May 2024.

The record contains 20 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 01 May 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (26 issues), Tyres (9 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (7 issues), Bodywork (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 51 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: “Nearside Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect no beam pattern visible (4.1.2 (c))”; “Front Tyre(s) of different sizes are fitted on the same axle. 225/55r17 & 235/55r17 fitted (5.2.3 (b))”; “Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases rear silencer (6.1.2 (a))”.
