BBC Freedom Of Info man applied under Freedom of Information Act for MOT failure rate, make and model info and sour people at the VOSA sent an unreadable file, which he translated to an Excell spreadsheet. Well done him.. Took him 3 years to go through the FOI hoops, but it seems most Government agencies didn't have FOI plans and people in place when instigated. I've only looked at XC90's but you might be interested in your own models failings. Surprised how many cars fail MOT on Tyres! and Glass? http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/opensecrets volvo start at line 30291 . Have Fun! there's an update and links to searchable speadsheets and databases. http://www.prosol.co.uk/mot_test_results __________________ xc90caravanpuller 54 plate xc90 D5 163 se, semi auto, silver, winter pack (heated seats, bi-xenons, headlight wash) skid plates, roof strips, side rails/running boards, aftermarket Pull down DVD, Garmin nuvi 720.
