MCP Vehicles Tools
Look up DfT licensed vehicle stock, compare MOT pass rates, or identify common failure reasons. DfT and DVSA data is reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
Each call costs 10 credits. All tools are read-only and idempotent.
| Tool | Description | Parameters |
|---|---|---|
lookup_mot_pass_rates |
Look up pre-aggregated 2025 MOT pass rates by vehicle make, model, fuel type, and vehicle age band. |
make
string model string fuel_type string vehicle_age_band string test_year integer |
lookup_mot_failures |
Look up pre-aggregated common 2025 MOT failure, PRS, advisory, and minor reasons by make and model. |
make
string model string rfr_type string dangerous_only boolean test_year integer |
lookup_vehicle_licensing |
Look up DfT licensed vehicle stock by make, model, quarter, body type, licence status, and geography. |
make
string model string quarter string body_type string licence_status string geography string |
lookup_road_traffic |
Look up DfT annual average daily flow (AADF) in vehicles/day by count point, year, road, region, or local authority. Link-level AADF figures are modelled estimates, not continuous measurements: most count points are counted manually once and factored. |
count_point
integer year_from integer year_to integer road_name string region string local_authority string |

Data Coverage
DfT licensing stock covers GB from 1994 Q4 and UK from 2014 Q3, refreshed quarterly. MOT results cover test year 2025. DfT road traffic covers 1993–2025, with count-point AADF from 2000, in vehicles/day; regional and local-authority totals are vehicle miles and should be presented rounded to the nearest million. Link-level AADF figures are modelled estimates, not continuous measurements: most count points are counted manually once and factored. No new prompt is registered: the existing vehicle reliability prompt remains MOT-specific. See the REST vehicles reference for source, methodology, and caveats.
