MOT Analysis

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

15 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Land Rover Discovery (R313 YOG) between September 2005 and December 2013.

The record contains 8 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 16 December 2013 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (12 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 6 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 Seat belt anchorage prescribed area is excessively corroded (5.2.6)”; “Nearside Rear Tie bar/rod attachment bracket/mounting corroded and its strength is seriously reduced (2.4.G.1)”; “Offside Rear Lower Seat belt anchorage prescribed area is excessively corroded (5.2.6)”.
