MOT Analysis

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

31 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Land Rover Discovery (CA52 AVM) between February 2006 and September 2026.

The record contains 22 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 10 September 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (28 issues), Brakes (25 issues), Tyres (21 issues), Bodywork (5 issues), Windscreen (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 75 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 Brake pipe excessively corroded front to rear (1.1.11 (c))”; “Brake lever has insufficient reserve travel (1.1.2 (a))”; “Offside Rear Vehicle structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced (6.1.1 ”.
