Toyota Verso 2014: MOT failure rate for its age
22.5% of 18,437 MOT tests of the Toyota Verso 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 97.2 (95% CI 94.2–100.1; 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.
| 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.
