How Banff compares

Banff passes 57.5% of car tests, which is 7.4 points above the 50.1% national average. The typical wait between booking and testing is 6.1 weeks, 6 weeks shorter than the national average of 12.1 weeks. It conducted 280 car tests in April 2025 to March 2026. In the most recent month DVSA has published, March 2026, the rate was 61.1% — a single month, so expect it to bounce around the annual figure.

Banff conducts fewer than 500 tests a year, so its pass rate moves sharply on a small number of results. It is excluded from the site's rankings for that reason, though the figures above are exactly as DVSA published them.

The map below shows the Banff area rather than a pinpointed building. Confirm the exact address on your booking confirmation or via GOV.UK before you travel.
