Book an MOT in Bristol
You already know that the MOT is a legal requirement. Sadly, in Bristol it seems you’re likelier not to pass than elsewhere in Britain, with the city-wide average failure rate of 41%, head and shoulders above the national average of 36.1%. Luckily, with Fixter you're in good hands - we're here to help you with your MOT.
Among the most common causes of not passing are lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment, responsible for more than a fifth or 22% of Bristol’s MOT failures, followed by suspension at 14.4%, while just over one in 10 Bristolian motorists’ brakes will cost them a pass. Figures for all three were above the national figures for these test items, particularly the lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment one (for which the UK-wide stat is 17.8%).
Rover, Daewoo, and Talbot drivers face the city’s highest MOT failure rates, while Bentley, Dacia and Aston Martin motorists are among those enjoying Bristol’s highest pass rates.
Whatever the manufacturer, if your car was registered in 1999, that year has the worst MOT failure rate, with just 40.3% of local motorists passing this test then, compared with 49.1% vehicles registered in the same year nationally. (However, pass rates by year of registration have risen slowly but consistently ever since).
