AI verdict AVOID 60/100
AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2004 Mg has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 22,911 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a recurring suspension advisory and a recent wheel bearing advisory, makes this a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows a critical 9-year MOT history gap (Apr 2015–May 2024) with unverified mileage, followed by a suspiciously low annual usage of 4,152 miles/yr, and a 12,573 mi/yr equivalent jump before May 2008.
Things to check
- Critical 9-year MOT history gap (Apr 2015–May 2024) — no mileage verification.
- May 2007 MOT failure: Offside Headlamp not in good working order (22,911 mi).
- May 2024 MOT advisory: Wheel bearing — indicates ongoing mechanical wear.
- May 2024 MOT advisory: Suspension — points to recurring structural wear.
