2020 Morgan Plus 4 2.0L Petrol · RR20 MOG

The most recent MOT, dated 9 March 2026, was a clean pass at 2,089 miles with no defects recorded. This mirrors the three previous annual tests (2025‑2023), each also a clean pass and each showing only a modest increase in mileage – from 1,507 miles in early 2023 to 2,089 miles now. Over six calendar years the car has accumulated just 2,089 miles, roughly 350 miles per year, which is far below the average for a 2020 model. Such low mileage suggests the vehicle has seen very light use or long periods of storage. Light use means the usual wear‑items – brake pads, clutch, tyres, suspension bushings and drivetrain components – are likely to be in good mechanical condition. However, prolonged inactivity can allow corrosion to develop on chassis and under‑body parts, rubber seals and hoses can dry out, and the battery may have been under‑charged. The MOT record itself shows no emerging safety or structural defects, so the trend is stable rather than worsening. Because the mileage signal is ambiguous – it tells us the car has not been heavily driven but does not reveal how often it has been driven or how long it may have sat idle – a buyer should focus on the condition of parts that suffer from age and inactivity. In person, inspect: the under‑carriage and wheel arches for rust or dampness; the condition of rubber hoses, belts and seals (look for cracks or hardening); the battery’s state of charge and any signs of sulfation; the brakes – pads, discs and callipers – for any surface rust or uneven wear; the suspension bushings and mounts for corrosion or deterioration; the fluid levels and quality (engine oil, coolant, brake fluid) and ask for recent service records. If these checks are satisfactory, the vehicle’s clean MOT history and very low mileage indicate a low‑risk purchase, provided the buyer confirms that the car has been kept dry and has received regular maintenance despite its light use.
