What Land Rover failures look like
9 Land Rover tests recorded on MOTindex carry the manual reference DVSA attaches to each defect. The most frequent problems were with axles, wheels, tyres and suspension on 3 tests (33.3%) and with visibility on 1 test (11.1%). A test can fail on more than one thing, and an MOT can be failed on one defect while another is only advised, so these counts do not add up to the number of tests.
Narrowed down from the categories to the individual defects themselves, one of them comes up on more than one test:
-
Tyre worn close to legal limit/worn on edge
MOT inspection manual reference 5.2.3, in axles, wheels, tyres and suspension
Recorded on 3 of the 9 tests: one failure and 2 advisories or minors.
One Land Rover model has its own breakdown: Land Rover Range Rover Sport (9 tests).
Clauses are read from the manual reference at the end of every defect on the cached test records, and a defect shown here has to appear on at least two of them before it is named. The site-wide breakdown explains how that works and compares every make.
