How Rover compares

Rover has an MOT pass rate of 57.6%, against 69.4% across every make in the national record. That is 11,643,055 tests and 525,213 since 2012 with a defect code to categorise, so the figure rests on the whole national record for this make rather than a sample of it. See what Rover vehicles fail on.

Figures cover every Rover in the national MOT record, which includes vehicles since scrapped or exported, so "on record" is not a count of cars on the road. Pass rate counts every recorded MOT test, retests included.
