If a Suzuki Celerio fails, does it fail again?

19.5% of Suzuki Celerios that failed an MOT failed the next one too, against 12.8% after a pass (2019–2024, n = 6,913). The failure most likely to come back is ‘lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment’: 26.8% of those fails recurred at the next MOT.

What does a Suzuki Celerio cost to run in a fleet?

Of every 100 Suzuki Celerios tested at age 5, about 12 failed the MOT first time; at age 9, about 19. These are one-year rates for different cars tested in the same year, not a fleet followed over time; the steepest one-year step in this cross-section is between cars aged 8 and 9, 3.39 percentage points (2024).
