MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 1997 Land Rover Discovery (P931 KWG) between June 2006 and April 2025.

The record contains 16 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 22 April 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: Lighting (27 issues), Bodywork (7 issues), Steering (7 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Brakes (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 36 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: “Battery insecure (1.9.1)”; “Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.2.B.1f)”; “Offside Vehicle structure has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of the body mountings (6”.
