2007 Hyundai Coupe MOT pass rate: 57.0% (4,188 tests)
Is the 2007 Coupe getting worse?
Pass rate of 2007-registered cars across recent test years:
| Test year | Pass rate | |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 56.4% -8.7 vs same-age |
|
| 2024 | 57.4% -7.5 vs same-age |
|
| 2025 | 57.5% -7.9 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.
