BMW X6 2019: MOT failure rate for its age

14.7% of 2,041 MOT tests of the BMW X6 first registered in 2019 failed at the first attempt (2019–2024; retests excluded). Against this model's own normal rate at the same ages the index is 116.6 (95% CI 103.4–129.8; 100 = normal for this model at that age): the 2019 BMW X6 fails more often than other build years of the same model at the same age. This is a rough estimate from a smaller sample.
