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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Land Rover Discovery (FJ02 XCE) between November 2022 and June 2025.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (6 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Steering (4 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area fractured to the extent that control of the vehicle is likely”; “Offside Rear Shock absorbers likely to become detached (5.3.2 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint dust cover excessively damaged or deteriorated so that it no longer prevents the”.
