MOT PASS RATES

How every Rolls-Royce model really fares

Pass rates

The answer from the DVSA's class-4 MOT records.

How Rolls-Royce models compare on the MOT

The spread across Rolls-Royce models is wide — 96.5% for the Ghost at the top and 96.5% for the Phantom at the bottom, a 0.0-point gap across 2,554 and 2,356 recorded tests respectively. Most Rolls-Royce models sit much closer to the middle (around 96.5%, on 2,356 tests for the Phantom). 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: 8,824 tests across 6 Rolls-Royce 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 2 models with at least 2,000 tests — the 4 smaller Rolls-Royce models are listed below, unranked.

Other Rolls-Royce 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.
