2010 Fiat Bravo MOT pass rate: 60.3% (1,746 tests)
Is the 2010 Bravo getting worse?
Pass rate of 2010-registered cars across recent test years:
| Test year | Pass rate | |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 63.7% -4.3 vs same-age |
|
| 2024 | 58.3% -8.7 vs same-age |
|
| 2025 | 57.3% -9.6 vs same-age |
The raw rate normally falls as cars age. The “vs same-age” figure compares this cohort with all UK cars registered in the same year, so normal ageing is not mistaken for a bad model year.

What mileage is too high for a 2010 Bravo?
