GarageScout Take

The named-shop refurbishment has a continuous ownership trail, staying with the person who commissioned the work until the dealer’s acquisition. Against that, the five-digit odometer’s 2,000 miles sit within the observed 13-to-2,350-mile range while true mileage remains unknown, the repaint has a cracked left-front fender and worn brightwork, and the replacement identification tag differs from the TC5523 frame number, though that frame number agrees with MG Car Club records for the engine.

Strengths

  • Named-shop refurbishment with records from 2005, 2006 and a reported $30,000 cost.
  • Long-term post-refurbishment ownership by the person who commissioned the work.
  • Includes the owner’s manual, MG-related books, side curtains, and a top boot.

Watch For

  • True mileage is unknown; the five-digit odometer shows approximately 2,000 miles.
  • The body was repainted gray during the refurbishment, and the seller points out a crack in the paint on the left front fender and worn brightwork.
  • The identification tag is a replacement, and the car is titled under engine number XPAG6127; the frame carries car number TC5523.
