MG TF2003 · 1.8L PETROL

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clear improving trend following a period of mechanical concern. The most recent test in October 2025 at 94,179 miles passed with no defects or advisories. This follows a clean pass in October 2024 at 94,061 miles, indicating that the significant issues identified in previous years have been addressed and maintained according to test standards. At 94,179 miles, this 23-year-old MG TF reflects exceptionally low mileage, averaging approximately 4,100 miles per annum. The data shows consistent but infrequent usage patterns, with only 1,118 miles recorded between 2024 and 2025 and 1,318 miles between 2023 and 2024. While low mileage suggests less wear on the drivetrain components, it often leads to rubber-based components degrading or corrosion seizing if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system given the critical failure in October 2022 regarding a corroded and holed brake servo. While this was clearly repaired, the structural integrity of the mounting area and the surrounding hydraulic lines requires verification for further signs of galvanic corrosion. The 2023 failure for damaged headlight valve stems suggests a minor impact or neglect that was subsequently resolved, but the low-mileage profile combined with the car's age still necessitates a thorough check for perished suspension bushes and structural rust which are common on this specific chassis regardless of mileage.
