Rover 623 Si (1993)
1993 Rover 623 Si
CarHunch is tracking 252 1993 Rover 623 Si vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1993 Rover 623 SI is essentially extinct on the road — every single one of the 252 vehicles in this cohort failed its MOT, compared to the UK average pass rate of 80%. With a median reliability score of just 50 out of 100, these cars are well past their practical lifespan and should not be considered for purchase or regular use.
The complete absence of passing vehicles and the zero recorded failures or advisories suggests this data reflects a population of cars that are either barely roadworthy or no longer actively maintained, making any reliability assessment academic. If you're considering one, walk away — at nearly 30 years old, buying a 623 SI would mean committing to restoration-level work rather than ownership.
We have 252 1993 Rover 623 Si vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.
What to check before buying a 1993 Rover 623 Si
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
