MoT Data for Redhill

Redhill is another high-scoring area in the South East, which is fairly typical. All the major problem areas have lower than average failure rates and it's the same story in the manufacturer table.

Bentley and Aston Martin models have the highest pass rates, but despite that fact they’re both slightly below their national average rates. Honda is the best mainstream manufacturer and does 23% better than average when tested in RH postcodes.
