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 Defender (L682 NWW) between August 2006 and July 2025.

The record contains 14 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 30 July 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 11 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (23 issues), Suspension (20 issues), Brakes (15 issues), Steering (12 issues), Bodywork (12 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 53 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: “Rear Brakes imbalanced across an axle Axle 2 (1.2.1 (b) (i))”; “Service brake efficiency below requirements (1.2.2 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Front Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
