What Mclaren 570 failures look like

5,472 Mclaren 570 tests on record carry the manual reference DVSA attaches to each defect. The most frequent problems were with axles, wheels, tyres and suspension on 735 tests (13.4%), with registration plates and vehicle identification on 76 tests (1.4%) and with lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment on 55 tests (1.0%). A test can fail on more than one thing, and an MOT can be failed on one defect while another is only advised, so these counts do not add up to the number of tests.
