MOT Analysis

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

29 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Land Rover Defender (WF02 HGL) between April 2006 and November 2025.

The record contains 20 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 13 November 2025 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 (26 issues), Brakes (10 issues), Steering (7 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Windscreen (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 34 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: “Central Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”; “Nearside Rear Direction indicator not working (4.4.1 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Track rod end ball joint dust cover excessively damaged or deteriorated so that it no longer prevents the ingres”.
