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 1993 Land Rover Discovery (L235 HUD) between November 2006 and February 2026.

The record contains 15 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 21 February 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (24 issues), Brakes (19 issues), Suspension (15 issues), Bodywork (12 issues), Steering (8 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 58 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 Front Oil leaking excessively from transmission axle/swivel joint (8.4.1 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (5.2.3 (d) (i))”; “Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect both sides (4.1.2 (c))”.
