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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Land Rover Discovery (WF53 APX) between October 2022 and November 2025.

The record contains 4 passes and 1 failure.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (6 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Bodywork (2 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Brake pedal anti-slip provision missing (1.1.2 (c))”; “Front Registration plate insecure (0.1 (a))”.
