Just watching an episode of the original series which featured a Mg TC with the reg. MML4 and it's still on the road.  :)

Well the reg is still on the road, but I would have thought the car was old enough to be MOT exempt  :-\

It's probably stuck on the front of an oversize anonymous SUV now.  :'(

you can still take an MOT exempt car for an MOT , doesn't hurt to have a second pair of eyes check it over  :)
plus, it then appears on the VTS database, showing its been regularly inspected and mileage recorded  ;)

Before my time as I am still a young man.......as was the MGA. :)

I grew up with the MGB, MGC (which are quite rare) and the MGB GT V8.

No mot results because it's exempt.

It's still taxed, runs out on 1st June (16 days). Of course there's no MOT showing, it was first registered in October 1946, it's 75 years old  ;D

Like I said earlier, it's probably only used on film sets.
