MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Land Rover Discovery (R326 ENB) between June 2006 and June 2023.

The record contains 16 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 22 June 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (39 issues), Brakes (14 issues), Bodywork (8 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Steering (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 57 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 Lower Integral body structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced ”; “Rear fog lamp not working (4.5.1 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Rear Position lamp adversely affected by the operation of another lamp (4.2.3 (c))”.
