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 Discovery (BG03 DTY) between May 2006 and October 2026.

The record contains 21 passes and 4 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (14 issues), Brakes (13 issues), Bodywork (5 issues), Windscreen (3 issues), Tyres (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
