557.3M+ MOT tests
Don't trust one MOT pass — 557 million UK tests behind every CARMOTIQ insight

CARMOTIQ research draws on 557 million DVSA MOT tests across 83.9 million vehicles — not single-registration lookups.
Compare tools, brand pages, and research summaries reflect the same national picture: 557,275,768 MOT tests on 83,874,813 vehicles, spanning 56 makes.
That scale matters when you buy used. One MOT history on one car can look fine; make-and-model research shows what that vehicle type typically does at MOT time.
The headline counts grow as more official MOT results become available. The idea stays the same: strength in numbers, not anecdotes.
