The national summary uses the latest COMPLETE, reliable financial year (2023 to 2024); the provisional 2024/25 total in the published CSV is anomalous (it reports only ~41k tests versus ~32.7M for a full year) and was deliberately not used. The first-time pass rate is 100 minus the initial fail rate; the after-rectification rate reflects vehicles fixed at the test station. DVSA does not publish MOT results by vehicle make or age in these tables, so no such breakdown is included. No figure is estimated.","keyFigures":[{"label":"First-time pass rate","value":"71.42%","note":"Initial pass rate, Classes 3 & 4"},{"label":"Pass rate after rectification","value":"77.05%","note":"After fixes at the test station"},{"label":"MOT tests","value":"32,693,703","note":"Classes 3 & 4, FY 2023 to 2024"},{"label":"Vehicle class","value":"Classes 3 & 4","note":"Cars, vans & up to 12 seats"}],"columns":[{"name":"metric","description":"MOT statistic name"},{"name":"value","description":"Reported value (percentage or count)"},{"name":"year","description":"Financial year of the figure"}],"sampleRows":[{"metric":"First-time pass rate","value":"71.42%","year":"2023 to 2024"},{"metric":"Pass rate after rectification","value":"77.05%","year":"2023 to 2024"},{"metric":"Total MOT tests (Classes 3 & 4)","value":32693703,"year":"2023 to 2024"}],"notice":"sampleRows is a verbatim sample, not the full snapshot.
