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 2001 Land Rover Discovery (Y957 EAF) between October 2006 and September 2026.

The record contains 20 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 10 September 2026 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 (24 issues), Brakes (17 issues), Bodywork (10 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Tyres (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 57 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 Towbar excessively corroded within 30cm of towbar mounting (6.1.6 (i) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Rear Stop lamp(s) not working (4.3.1 (a) (ii))”.
