How the MOT Risk Index and every figure on this page are calculated: methodology.
What is wrong on this page? One tap sends the category only, no text and nothing about you.
58.3% of first attempts passed in 2024 (384 tests). Retests after repair are excluded; cars fixed at the test centre (PRS) are shown separately.
Other sites may count retests or all attempts. This page uses 384 primary tests: 41.67% failed first time and 67.2% passed when cars fixed at the test centre (PRS) count as passes. The age-adjusted MOT Risk Index 121.6 is shown separately.
