MOTs in Edinburgh vs the country

Cars tested in the EH postcode area pass 77.9% of MOT tests, and 75.8% once the local mix of ages and mileage is adjusted to the national one — 112 of 118 areas. Nationally it is 81.0%.

The common failures here add up to £696–£1,874 of parts per 100 tests, against £615–£1,675 nationally — 96 of 118 areas, cheapest first.

Tread depth below 1.6 mm — 18.3% of local tests (17.4% nationally)
Tyre has a tear — 11.6% of local tests (9.2% nationally)
Ball joint excessively worn — 5.9% of local tests (3.1% nationally)

That is about the cars, not about the garages below. The anonymised test data has no station field, so there is no per-station pass rate on this site. The full area picture →

What an MOT costs

The maximum fee for a car is £54.85, with no VAT on top; stations may charge less. A fail gets a free retest if you leave the car for repair and return within 10 working days, or for a listed set of items before the end of the next working day — the rules in full. The common failures are priced on the repair price list, and the calculator adds up your own items.
