MOT Analysis

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

32 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Land Rover Discovery (V974 GCN) between January 2007 and January 2026.

The record contains 19 passes and 13 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (50 issues), Suspension (28 issues), Brakes (26 issues), Bodywork (19 issues), Tyres (16 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
