MOT Analysis

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

31 MOT tests are recorded for this 2000 Land Rover Defender (X726 DNH) between September 2006 and December 2025.

The record contains 20 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 22 December 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 11 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (31 issues), Suspension (23 issues), Brakes (22 issues), Steering (10 issues), Tyres (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 75 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: “Offside Rear Shock absorbers has an excessively worn bush (5.3.2 (c))”; “Nearside Headlamp aim too low (4.1.2 (a))”; “Offside Front Direction indicator not working (4.4.1 (a) (ii))”.
