If a Toyota Land Cruiser fails, does it fail again?

29.7% of Toyota Land Cruisers that failed an MOT failed the next one too, against 25.7% after a pass (2019–2024, n = 10,833). The failure most likely to come back is identification of the vehicle: 29.7% of those fails recurred at the next MOT.

What does a Toyota Land Cruiser cost to run in a fleet?

Of every 100 Toyota Land Cruisers tested at age 5, about 13 failed the MOT first time (rough estimate); at age 10, about 15 (rough estimate). These are one-year rates for different cars tested in the same year, not a fleet followed over time (2024).

Does the Toyota Land Cruiser fail inspections in other countries too?

In Norway, 41.9% of Toyota Land Cruisers failed their periodic roadworthiness inspection, against 33.7% for all cars there (2024 by country, n = 11,136 inspections).

Both readings are shown: this comparison changes when usage or inspection rules differ.

Inspections abroad disagree: Finland point the same way as Britain, Norway and the Netherlands do not. Test rules, climate and how the vehicles are used differ, so both readings are shown.

Toyota Land Cruiser MOT: quick answers

What is the Toyota Land Cruiser first-time MOT pass rate?

70.9% of first attempts passed in 2024 (21,287 tests). Retests after repair are excluded; cars fixed at the test centre (PRS) are shown separately.

Why does this number differ from other sites?

Other sites may count retests or all attempts. This page uses 21,287 primary tests: 29.12% failed first time and 76.0% passed when cars fixed at the test centre (PRS) count as passes. The age-adjusted MOT Risk Index 81.5 is shown separately.
