MOT Analysis

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

11 MOT tests are recorded for this 1995 Land Rover Discovery (M235 KPA) between December 2005 and October 2022.

The record contains 7 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 29 October 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (14 issues), Bodywork (8 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Steering (2 issues), Tyres (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 17 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 Rear Anti-roll bar linkage has excessive play in a pin/bush (2.4.G.2)”; “Nearside Rear Anti-roll bar linkage has excessive play in a pin/bush (2.4.G.2)”; “Offside Rear Direction indicators not working (1.4.A.2c)”.
