MoneySuperMarket’s new Van MOT Fail Checker reveals the most common MOT faults for the UK’s most popular van models
Van insurance expert MoneySuperMarket has analysed over 815 million MOT results
The Nissan Primastar and the Fiat Scudo are the UK vans most likely to fail a MOT
Vans most likely to pass include the Volkswagen Amarok and Mitsubishi L200
The huge analysis of DVSA data reveals the most common MOT faults for vans include worn-out handbrakes and broken registration plate lamps
The results of an enormous MOT data study have been released this week by van insurance expert MoneySuperMarket.
Researchers at MoneySuperMarket filtered down over 815 million MOT results from the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) to create a Van MOT Fail Checker tool, showing the most common faults for over 70 different van models.
Alongside the Van MOT Fail Checker tool MoneySuperMarket also released a new MOT Fail Report revealing which van models have, on average, the best and worst MOT pass rates.
The most frequently seen MOT faults in UK vans
The new research shows the top reasons UK vans fail their MOT- the handbrake isn’t strong enough to safely hold the vehicle securely; the registration plate lamps aren’t functioning correctly; or the windscreen wipers aren’t effectively clearing the windscreen.
Handbrake failure is a common MOT issue in many van models. Drivers often don’t notice handbrake problems, especially if they usually park on flat surfaces or leave the van in gear.
Other very frequent fail reasons include the front tyre tread depth falling below requirements of 1.6mm; the windscreen washer providing insufficient washer liquid; or front position lamps not working.
The 10 Most Frequent Van MOT Fail Reasons in the UK from 2005
Nearside Front position lamp(s) not working (1.1.A.3b)
2,210,491
10
Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)
2,177,809
Alicia Hempsted, Van Insurance expert at MoneySuperMarket, says: “For tradespeople and van drivers, an MOT failure can mean more than just inconvenience – it can lead to lost earnings and even invalidate your insurance. That’s why our Van MOT Fail Checker is designed to help drivers spot common issues, like worn tyres or faulty handbrakes, before test day. By analysing over 20 years of MOT fail results, we’ve created a tool that empowers van owners to make informed choices, save money, and stay safer on the road. While we can’t guarantee a pass, taking proactive steps could help reduce the risk of unexpected costs.”
Nissan Primastar and Fiat Scudo among van models most likely to fail their MOT
Based on van models that have had over 10,000 MOT tests since 2005, the Nissan Primastar is the model most likely to fail an MOT, with the Fiat Scudo and Vauxhall Astravan completing the top three.

Donegal based roofing and rainwater specialist Kytun has picked up the Most Innovative Product award for its Performance Plus Aluminium Slate Trim at the 2025 Pitched Roofing Awards, reinforcing its position as one of the UK and Ireland’s most forward-thinking roofing manufacturers.
Held in November at The Midland Hotel in Manchester, the awards celebrate technical excellence, innovation and best practice across the pitched roofing sector. Kytun also sponsored the Best Use of Slate for a Domestic Project category, reflecting its long-standing commitment to quality slate detailing and the installers and designers who deliver it on site.
Innovation driven by real-world roofing challenges
The pitched roofing sector is undergoing a clear shift. Traditional mortar-based solutions are increasingly being replaced by dry fix systems that offer improved durability, faster installation and consistent performance over time. At the same time, pressure is growing around sustainability, waste reduction and long-term compliance.
Performance Plus was developed to address these challenges head-on, delivering a continuous dry fix solution for slate and tile roofs, removing the need for additional materials or multiple installation stages. By combining form, function and speed, it creates a cleaner roof edge and viable alternative to traditional methods that are vulnerable to weathering and failure.
For installers, the benefits are obvious: Performance Plus can reduce installation time by up to 50%, enabling efficient installation without compromising finish or performance. The system installs cleanly, creates consistent alignment along the verge, and eliminates the variability often associated with mortar applications.
Performance, durability and long-term good looks
Performance Plus has been cleverly engineered for both speed and longevity, so Kytun can confidently provide a 30-year warranty as standard.
Aesthetically, the slim aluminium profile provides a sharp, uniform finish that complements both contemporary and traditional builds: an increasingly important consideration as homeowners and designers place greater emphasis on detailing.
From a performance perspective, the use of aluminium also supports wider industry movement towards durable, low-maintenance materials that perform consistently over time.
Sustainability as standard, not an afterthought
The Roofing Awards judges highlighted innovation and sustainability as key factors in Kytun’s win, and rightly so.
By reducing material waste, removing wet trades from the verge installation process, and extending product lifespan, Performance Plus aligns with more responsible building practices. Aluminium’s recyclability further strengthens its sustainability credentials, supporting circular economy principles increasingly valued across residential and commercial construction.
This focus is not isolated to a single product. Kytun’s broader dry fix roofing systems range reflects a manufacturer-led approach to sustainable innovation, one that starts with real installer feedback and ends with practical, compliant solutions that stand up to scrutiny.
Supporting excellence across the industry
Kytun’s sponsorship of the Best Use of Slate for a Domestic Project category reinforced its ongoing support for craftsmanship and technical skill within the roofing industry. The category showcased how high-quality materials, thoughtful specification and skilled installation can deliver outstanding results, particularly in slate roofing where detailing matters.
Speaking after the event, the Kytun team highlighted the awards as recognition not just of a product, but of a wider commitment to performance-led design, manufacturing quality and installer-focused innovation.
Setting the benchmark for modern dry fix systems
Winning Most Innovative Product at the 2025 Pitched Roofing Awards positions Performance Plus as a benchmark for modern verge solutions – one that reflects where the industry is now, and where it is heading.
As regulation tightens, sustainability expectations grow, and time pressures on site increase, solutions that combine speed, durability and clean detailing are no longer optional. They are becoming the standard.
For Kytun, this recognition signals more than a successful awards night. It underscores a clear mission: to design roofing systems that perform better, last longer and make life easier for the professionals who install them.
