United Kingdom figures from DfT table VEH0220 (licensed cars at the end of each year, SORN excluded), so they differ slightly from the Great Britain counts elsewhere on this page. This covers cars DVLA records under this version’s name only; the Toyota Corolla page covers every version. How we use engine sizes.
Toyota Corolla MOT reliability
In 2025, 78.0% of Toyota Corolla MOT tests were passed first time, against 72.8% for all cars. Cars of the same ages pass 76.5% of the time, so the Toyota Corolla does better than average for its age, by 1.5 points.
DVSA's MOT results name the model, not the version, so these figures cover all Toyota Corollas tested, the SE among them. For the full breakdown, including defects in detail and results year by year, see the Toyota Corolla page.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Licensed and SORN counts | Vehicle licensing statistics Department for Transport | End of June 2026 | 868 Toyota Corolla SE records (licensed and SORN) | 2 October 2026 |

- Figures cover Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales). Northern Ireland is not included.
- Licensed counts are vehicles with a current tax or exemption at the end of each year (or the latest quarter). SORN counts are shown separately, from 2007.
- This version groups DVLA’s detailed model names “COROLLA SE 16V”, “COROLLA SE 16V AUTO”. Engine size, gearbox, number of doors and fuel are ignored, so every engine and gearbox counts together.
- Survival compares the number still registered (licensed or SORN) with the most licensed at any year end since 1994, plus any first registered after that year. Other versions are those of the same model whose licensed count peaked in the same years, up to 2001.
