Hyundai Coupe 2009: MOT failure rate for its age
45.4% of 8,062 MOT tests of the Hyundai Coupe first registered in 2009 failed at the first attempt (2019–2024; retests excluded). Against this model's own normal rate at the same ages the index is 97.6 (95% CI 94.5–100.8; 100 = normal for this model at that age): the 2009 build year is no different from other years of the same model at the same age.
| Measure | Value | Unit | Compared with | Years | Tests |

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.
