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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Mg Tf (RG02 KVE) between May 2006 and November 2015.

The record contains 11 passes and 5 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (6 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Steering (2 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
