MOT Analysis

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

31 MOT tests are recorded for this 1994 Land Rover Defender (M665 JOD) between September 2005 and November 2025.

The record contains 21 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 22 November 2025 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: Brakes (12 issues), Steering (9 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Bodywork (5 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 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 Steering linkage ball joint has excessive play (2.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Nearside Front Steering linkage ball joint has excessive play (2.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Registration plate lamp inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps (4.7.1 (b) (ii))”.
