MINI Clubman 2014: MOT failure rate for its age
16.1% of 224 MOT tests of the MINI Clubman first registered in 2014 failed at the first attempt (2019–2024; retests excluded). Against this model's own normal rate at the same ages the index is 86.3 (95% CI 58.1–114.5; 100 = normal for this model at that age): the 2014 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 | 16.1 | % | all ages tested | 2019–2024 | 224 |
| Index against this model at the same age (95% CI 58.1–114.5) | 86.3 | index | 100 = normal for this model at that age | 2019–2024 | 224 |
| Rank among this model's 11 build years | 1 | of 11 | 1 = fails least for its age | 2019–2024 | 224 |

How does the 2014 MINI Clubman fail at each age?
Cars built in 2014 were tested at ages 5 to 10 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) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | 35 (rough estimate) | 11.4 | 4.5–26 | 15.3 | 74.7 |
| 6 | 36 (rough estimate) | 22.2 | 11.7–38.1 | 15.8 | 140.3 |
| 7 | 38 (rough estimate) | 13.2 | 5.8–27.3 | 18.2 | 72.3 |
| 8 | 39 (rough estimate) | 17.9 | 9–32.7 | 18.7 | 96.1 |
| 9 | 36 (rough estimate) | 13.9 | 6.1–28.7 | 20.7 | 67.1 |
| 10 | 40 (rough estimate) | 17.5 | 8.7–32 | 22.5 | 77.8 |

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.
