Honda HR-V 2000: MOT failure rate for its age
44.9% of 3,197 MOT tests of the Honda HR-V first registered in 2000 failed at the first attempt (2019–2024; retests excluded). Against this model's own normal rate at the same ages the index is 99.2 (95% CI 94.0–104.3; 100 = normal for this model at that age): the 2000 build year is no different from other years of the same model at the same age. This is a rough estimate from a smaller sample.
| Measure | Value | Unit | Compared with | Years | Tests |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Failed first time | 44.9 | % | all ages tested | 2019–2024 | 3197 |
| Index against this model at the same age (95% CI 94.0–104.3) | 99.2 | index | 100 = normal for this model at that age | 2019–2024 | 3197 |
| Rank among this model's 13 build years | 8 | of 13 | 1 = fails least for its age | 2019–2024 | 3197 |

How does the 2000 Honda HR-V fail at each age?
Cars built in 2000 were tested at ages 19 to 22 between 2019 and 2024. Each row compares their first-time failure share with what this model normally shows at that age, after allowing for the overall failure level of each test year.
| Age | Tests | Failed, % | 95% interval | Normal for this model at that age, % | Index (100 = normal) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 19 | 1,185 | 46 | 43.2–48.8 | 48 | 95.8 |
| 20 | 849 | 44.9 | 41.6–48.2 | 45.8 | 98 |
| 21 | 666 | 43.8 | 40.1–47.6 | 42.5 | 103.1 |
| 22 | 497 (rough estimate) | 43.5 | 39.2–47.9 | 41.2 | 105.4 |

How every figure is calculated: methodology. Age, test year and build year are tied together (age = test year − build year), so the test-year level is taken as observed, not estimated.
