2021 Morgan Plus 6 Auto 3.0L Petrol · FR03 MOG

The Morgan Plus 6 Auto currently fails the roadworthiness standard. The most recent test on 8 April 2026 at 18,181 miles returned a failure with no defects recorded, an administrative or presentation anomaly rather than a clean mechanical pass. Prior to that the car passed on 24 April 2025 at 17,078 miles and on 22 May 2024 at 14,154 miles, with an earlier failure on 4 May 2024 at 14,040 miles also showing no defects logged. The pattern is neither clearly worsening nor improving; the history is sparse and shows two non-defect failures bookending otherwise clean passes, which prevents any firm trend judgement on wear or neglect. The recorded mileage sits at 18,181 miles against a 2021 build, averaging roughly 3,636 miles per year. The car covered only 2,038 miles between the May 2024 and April 2025 tests and a further 1,103 miles to April 2026. Such low annual use over five years suggests extended standing periods, which commonly allows brake calipers to seize, tyres to develop flat spots, and fluid degradation to go unchecked despite the absence of advisories in the record. A buyer should physically verify the reason for the April 2026 failure, since DVSA logs show no defect line yet the test was not passed. Inspect the braking system for binding calipers or corroded discs from inactivity, and check suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing caused by low-mileage storage rather than road wear. Confirm there is no structural corrosion hidden beneath the aluminium body and that exhaust emissions meet limits, as the clean MOT lines give no assurance once a failure with no recorded fault appears on the file.
