2006 MG 2.5L Petrol · WA06 GOU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT test in July 2025 at 75,358 miles with no recorded defects. This follows a period of consistent passes over the last three years, despite a single failure in July 2024 at 75,183 miles. The immediate retest success following that failure suggests the issue was minor and rectified quickly rather than indicating a systemic mechanical decline. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twenty-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,768 miles per year. The data shows very limited usage between June 2022 and June 2024, where the car covered only 419 miles in a two-year span. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between use can lead to fluid degradation, seized brake calipers, and the age-related decay of rubber-based components which are not captured by mileage alone. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, as vehicles of this era are prone to corrosion regardless of distance driven. Check for rust around sills, suspension arches, and whereার may have perished due to lack of movement. Given the low usage, inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking and examine the suspension bushes for splitting, as these parts often fail from age rather than than mechanical wear.
