MoT Data for Slough

It's more or less a clean sheet for Slough, which is among the best places in the UK for MoT pass rates. The only blemish is the pass rate for 2010 registered cars, which is 2 per cent lower than the national average for cars of the same age.

Everything else is green though, which signifies above average performance compared to the rest of the UK. Often times the deviation is significant, showing Slough cars often have a noticably higher than average chance of passing their annual MoT.
