MOT Analysis

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

27 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Land Rover Discovery (R606 CNP) between September 2005 and October 2023.

The record contains 19 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 18 October 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (52 issues), Suspension (17 issues), Brakes (14 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues), Bodywork (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 92 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: “Exhaust emissions test not completed because smoke levels are significantly in excess of the specified limit values (8.2”; “Exhaust emissions exceed level of metered smoke for a turbo charged engine 5.20 1/m limit 3.00 1/m (8.2.2.2 (b))”; “Nearside Rear Brake pipe excessively damaged (1.1.11 (c))”.
