The figures were published on THE VEHICLE@OPERATOR SERVICES AGENCYs (vosa) website following an 18-month freedom of information bid by the BBC. CAR @VAN buyers can now access the government agency data revealing the MOT failure rates of different models of vehicles./ vehicles first used in 1997 and 10 years old at the time of their 2007 mot,the models with the highest failure rates were rover420on 52%. fiat punto on 51.7% and ford KA on51.7%. but be reminded its only snapshot and does not take into account the individual milage or how oweners look after their vechicle.
