The picture
Across 822 MOT tests, the Huracan returns 93.9% first-time pass — comfortably ahead of the UK fleet average. The single most-logged Major fail is windscreen damage. A seriously damaged tyre and number plate missing round out the top three. Average tested mileage sits at 15,985, which is the lens to read those failure rankings through. If you own one and the next test is close, the ranked list below is a sensible pre-test checklist.
