MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 1996 Mg Mgf (P753 KBP) between April 2006 and June 2025.

The record contains 13 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 26 June 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (14 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Steering (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 29 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Exhaust carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle exceeds default limits (8.2.1.2 (b))”; “Electronic power steering warning lamp indicates a system malfunction (2.6 (a))”; “Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases flexi (6.1.2 (a))”.
