AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2003 Land Rover has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 19,790 miles. While mileage is consistent, the sheer volume of failures and advisories makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual usage averaging 7,752 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a significant 2015 service gap is noted.

Things to check

  • Persistent brake failures and advisories across 14 tests (e.g., Aug 2013 FAIL, Jul 2012 ADVISORY).
  • Recurring tyre failures and advisories (e.g., Jan 2009 FAIL, Jul 2012 ADVISORY).
  • Recurring seatbelt failures and advisories (e.g., Jan 2009 FAIL, Nov 2014 ADVISORY).
  • Recurring position lamp failures and advisories (e.g., Jan 2009 FAIL, Nov 2014 ADVISORY).

Working in its favour

  • Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 7,752 miles/year, indicating regular use.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a long, consistent service history, albeit with many failures.
  • No recent MOT failures, indicating the owner has been proactive in addressing issues.
