MOT Analysis

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

40 MOT tests are recorded for this 1994 Land Rover Defender (M660 JLJ) between December 2005 and December 2025.

The record contains 21 passes and 19 failures.

The most recent test on 17 December 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 19 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (56 issues), Brakes (21 issues), Steering (14 issues), Windscreen (7 issues), Suspension (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 76 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: “Nearside Front Passenger's seat insecure (6.2.6 (a) (ii))”; “Dipswitch does not operate immediately when selected on dipped beam (4.1.3 (b))”; “Offside Rear Shock absorbers has negligible damping effect (5.3.2 (d))”.
