Bentley MOT pass rates
Bentley MOT pass rates, ranked across 11 models and 60,121 DVSA MOT tests between 2000 and 2022, from the Bentayga (96.1%) to the Arnage (89.5%). The tables below compare every model with enough tests to rank, list the most-tested models, and link to each model's own pass-rate and fault pages.
How Bentley models compare on the MOT
The spread across Bentley models is wide — 96.1% for the Bentayga at the top and 89.5% for the Arnage at the bottom, a 6.6-point gap across 7,582 and 3,803 recorded tests respectively. Most Bentley models sit much closer to the middle (around 94.1%, on 2,158 tests for the Flying Spur). The best and worst are both real DVSA results, not opinions: the pass rate is the share of every completed MOT test for that model that ended in a pass.
Every figure above is drawn from the DVSA's class-4 MOT records for the 2000–2022 data years: 60,121 tests across 11 Bentley models. A pass rate counts every completed test — first attempt and retests — so the figures above include a van or motorhome being tested twice in one year. The first-time pass figures on each model page are lower as a result. See the methodology page for exactly how each rate is calculated and how the DVSA source data is filtered.

Ranked by aggregate pass rate across all years, for the 5 models with at least 2,000 tests — the 6 smaller Bentley models are listed below, unranked.
Other Bentley models
Fewer than 2,000 tests each, so they are not ranked — every model still has its own pass-rate page.

Reading the numbers
A pass rate covers every completed test recorded for that model and year, including retests. First-attempt figures are lower. See how we calculate.
