MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Land Rover Discovery (SW03 AXX) between April 2006 and December 2021.

The record contains 15 passes and 8 failures.
