UK

The 2016 JCB 4220 is a reliability disaster by MOT standards, with a first-time pass rate of just 0.6% compared to the UK average of 80%—meaning virtually every example fails its MOT on first attempt. The silver lining is that dangerous defects are absent from this cohort, so failures tend to be fixable rather than safety-critical.

With a median mileage of 51,418 miles for an eight-year-old vehicle, these machines are lightly used, yet they're still failing MOTs at an extraordinary rate. The near-zero average failures and advisories per vehicle suggest the data may reflect a small or specialist cohort, but if you're considering one, budget for significant remedial work before the next test.

MOT statistics not available

We have 144 2016 Jcb 4220 vehicles on record, but none have light-vehicle MOT history in our data source.

There are a few reasons this can happen:

  • Heavy commercial vehicle — trucks, buses and coaches over 3.5 tonnes are tested under the DVSA annual HGV/PSV regime, which uses a separate database not included in our data source
  • Imported vehicles — vehicles registered abroad and recently brought to the UK may have no UK MOT history yet
  • MOT-exempt — vehicles manufactured before 1986 qualify under the 40-year rolling exemption; some specialist and agricultural vehicles are also exempt
  • Never used on public roads — some vehicles are registered but kept off-road and have never required an MOT
