AI verdict AVOID 28/100

AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2003 Mg has 29 MOT tests on record with a 72% pass rate and 16,596 miles. The very low mileage, combined with a suspiciously low total, raises serious concerns about its true condition and potential odometer fraud.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 1,924 miles/yr, with suspiciously low readings before Jan 2018 (64 mi/yr equivalent) and May 2026 (114 mi/yr equivalent), suggesting potential odometer issues.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (May 2026): Nearside Parking (secondary brake) on a single line braking system has no record
  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2026-05-22 (latest test) — immediate safety risk.
  • DANGEROUS suspension failure on 2026-05-22 — critical structural integrity concern.
  • Recurring DANGEROUS subframe corrosion (Jan 2021, Jan 2020) — severe structural degradation.

Working in its favour

  • No failures recorded for 2006-06-16 and 2007-10-22 tests — early clean record.
  • Consistent retesting and immediate repairs after failures — owner addressed issues promptly.
  • No advisories for 2008-10-21 test — single minor issue on that date.
