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

This 2017 Mg has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate. The recent low annual mileage and a 2021 service gap also warrant careful consideration.

The vehicle shows very low annual usage, averaging only 3,482 miles per year, with a significant 2021 service gap and a 2022 mileage drop from 15,926 to 19,683 miles.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories (Mar 2024, Mar 2025) and a major ABS failure (Feb 2022) indicate a history of wear and safety system issues.
  • A 2021 service gap is noted, suggesting potential periods of neglect or off-road use.
  • The Feb 2026 MOT shows a tyre advisory, indicating ongoing wear and maintenance needs.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until March 2027 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent low mileage (3,482 miles/year) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
  • No persistent major failures in the most recent MOTs (Feb 2026 pass).
  • The 2022 ABS failure was immediately rectified, showing responsive owner action.
