2025 Morgan Plus Four Auto Petrol · JC60 MOG

The 2025 Morgan Plus Four Auto presently holds no recorded DVSA MOT test history, meaning it has not yet been presented for statutory roadworthiness examination or no results have been logged. With the vehicle being a 2025 model year and the current date being September 2026, it is likely within its first year of registration, in which case it would not yet be due for its initial MOT test, which becomes a legal requirement once a vehicle reaches three years of age. Consequently, there is no official test outcome to evaluate and no historical trend, whether improving or worsening, can be established from the DVSA records. Any prospective buyer must therefore rely entirely on independent mechanical inspection rather than documented MOT data to verify the vehicle's roadworthy condition. The recorded mileage is not available, which prevents any meaningful assessment of annual usage rates, significant mileage gaps, or patterns of rapid accumulation. Given that this is essentially a brand-new performance vehicle from the 2025 model year, the absence of recorded mileage is unsurprising, and it is likely that any mileage accrued would be very modest given the car's recent registration. Low initial mileage on a high-performance Morgan is generally not a concern from a mechanical wear perspective, though it does mean the components have had limited opportunity to be thoroughly exercised. Buyers should confirm the actual current mileage directly with the seller and verify it against any available service documentation or warranty records. In the absence of MOT defects or advisories, a prospective buyer should focus on age-and-mileage-appropriate physical checks even for a relatively new vehicle. The tyres should be inspected closely for any signs of sidewall cracking, perishing, or uneven tread wear, as even lightly used performance tyres can degrade from age or develop flat spots and uneven wear patterns if the vehicle has been stored for extended periods. The 12V battery should be tested for its state of charge and overall health, particularly if the car has been stored or used only intermittently, as modern vehicle batteries can deteriorate significantly without regular use. All fluid levels and conditions should be verified, including engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, and any transmission fluid specified for the automatic gearbox, paying attention to whether any of these are approaching their calendar-based replacement intervals regardless of mileage. The brake discs and calipers should be examined for any signs of corrosion, binding, or seizing, as vehicles that have been stationary can develop surface rust on the discs and sticky caliper pistons, which may manifest as brake shudder, uneven pulling, or a grinding sensation on the first few applications. During a physical inspection and test drive, particular attention should be given to areas that would normally be flagged on an MOT test if the vehicle were eligible, including all lighting equipment, mirror condition, windscreen for chips or cracks, and the operation of all washers and wipers. The exhaust system should be checked for any signs of leaks, damage, or unusual emissions, and the underside of the vehicle should be examined for any evidence of fluid leaks, corrosion, or damaged undertrays given Morgan's traditional construction methods. On the road, the buyer should listen carefully for any suspension knocks or clonks from the front and rear suspension components, including the distinctive coil spring and bush assemblies fitted to the Plus Four, and verify that the automatic transmission shifts smoothly through all gears without hesitation or harsh engagement. Given Morgan's hand-built heritage and limited production volumes, it is strongly advisable to commission a pre-purchase inspection by a specialist familiar with the marque to verify the structural integrity, mechanical condition, and proper functioning of all major systems before completing any purchase.
