Snapshot generated 2026-08-24 from the compact derived MOT model summary. Duplicate MOT labels that share a URL slug were canonicalised to the higher-volume row. No per-test or per-VIN records are published.

What is the JAGUAR S-TYPE MOT pass rate?

In the 2023–24 DVSA MOT file this nameplate passed 73.0% of 14,065 tests (10,132 passes, 3,739 fails). That is a test-outcome rate, not a prediction for any one car.

Is a high MOT pass rate the same as reliability?

No. MOT tests a defined set of roadworthiness items at a point in time. They do not measure durability, crashworthiness, or US complaint volume. Sparse models (under 500 tests) are not published.

Are these UK or US figures?

UK. The rest of ModelYearFacts is US NHTSA and EPA evidence. This hub is Great Britain MOT statistics on the same nameplate, published under the Open Government Licence.
