MOT Analysis

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

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Land Rover Discovery (SH52 JXP) between December 2005 and July 2023.

The record contains 17 passes and 3 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (19 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Steering (3 issues), Bodywork (2 issues), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Rear Road wheel more than one fixing loose (5.2.1 (a) (ii))”; “Drag link end ball joint has excessive play STEERING BOX (2.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.1.3 (b) (i))”.
