Is the 2011 Rodeo getting worse?
Pass rate of 2011-registered cars across recent test years:
| Test year | Pass rate | |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 66.4% -3.7 vs same-age |
|
| 2024 | 66.1% -2.8 vs same-age |
|
| 2025 | 64.4% -4.1 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 2011 Rodeo?
