MOT Analysis

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

28 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Land Rover Discovery (BV51 FMF) between January 2007 and June 2026.

The record contains 20 passes and 8 failures.
