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

28 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Land Rover Discovery (Y38 CLA) between April 2006 and August 2025.

The record contains 20 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 20 August 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (26 issues), Suspension (18 issues), Windscreen (12 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Bodywork (7 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 55 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: “Nearside Rear Towbar excessively corroded within 30cm of towbar mounting (6.1.6 (i) (i))”; “Offside Rear Towbar excessively corroded within 30cm of towbar mounting (6.1.6 (i) (i))”; “Offside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural streng”.
