Anonymised MOT tests and results

All MOT tests and outcomes, including make and model of vehicle, odometer reading and reasons for failure, since the MOT system was computerised in 2005.

Since the March 2012 release the dataset has included a unique reference ID for each individual vehicle. This allows users to track individual vehicles through all the tests it has undergone.
