BW53 BYC Questions

When does BW53BYC require an MOT?

The MOT expires 12th November 2024. You can present the vehicle for an MOT test from the 13th October onwards and still keep 12th November as the expiry date following year.

How much is the road tax for BW53BYC?

The road tax for this diesel Land Rover Discovery ES Premium TD5A is £395 per year, or £217.25 every six months.

From 25 October 2021 the London Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) is expanding to create a zone bounded by the North Circular Road (A406) and South Circular Road (A205). BW53BYC is not ULEZ compliant, meaning that there is a daily charge if you drive within the ULEZ.
