AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2018 Mg has 9 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 54,461 miles. While mileage is consistent, the vehicle's history of neglect requires thorough investigation.
The vehicle shows normal annual usage (11,801 miles/yr) from 2021 onwards, but a critical anomaly exists: suspiciously low mileage of 238 miles in the first 3 years (Jan 2018 to May 2021).
Things to check
- Recurring major failures: Headlamps (Apr 2024), Tyres (Apr 2024), and Brakes (May 2022) show systemic neglect.
- High mileage in first 3 years (54,461 mi by Jan 2021) followed by suspiciously low usage (238 mi by May 2021) suggests a change in use or potential fraud.
- Brake system has 13 advisories and 1 major failure, indicating chronic wear and poor maintenance.
- Tyre condition has 7 advisories and 2 major failures, pointing to a history of poor care and reactive repairs.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-05-26, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent annual mileage post-2021, indicating regular use and no recent odometer fraud.
- No structural corrosion or major engine failures reported in the MOT history.
- Immediate retests after failures, suggesting prompt owner action to pass tests.
