About

CarHistory.cc turns DVSA's anonymised MOT data into first-time pass rates for 457 UK car models, broken down by first-use year and compared with the average for cars of the same age, so used-car buyers can see which model years do better or worse. The site also publishes "years to avoid", the most common MOT failures and average mileage by age. The aggregated data is free to download as CSV, and the methodology is published in full. A free MOT history check reads DVSA's MOT History API and shows every MOT since 2005 for a registration, with defects graded dangerous, major, minor or advisory and the odometer reading at each test. A reading 1% or more below the previous one is flagged, kilometre readings are converted to miles, and advisories that repeat in the same area are highlighted. It also shows MOT status and any outstanding recall in DVSA's record. No account is needed. CarHistory.cc is independent and not part of DVSA, DVLA or GOV.UK.
