MG MG 5 EXCLUSIVE EV2021 · Electric

The MG 5 Exclusive EV presents a clean roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 April 2025 at 54,135 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and every prior annual examination since the vehicle was three years old has done the same. No advisories, failures, or recurring faults appear across the five entries, which indicates the previous keeper addressed consumable and mechanical items before each test rather than letting wear accumulate. Mileage progression sits close to typical use for a 2021 EV. The record shows 30,496 miles at the 27 March 2023 test, rising to 39,197 by 26 September 2023, then 46,489 on 25 March 2024 and 47,092 just two weeks later on 8 April 2024, before reaching 54,135 in April 2025. The brief 603-mile gap between the March and April 2024 tests suggests a re-test or duplicate entry rather than a fault-driven failure, and the annual averages of roughly 10,800 miles imply moderate urban and commuter use with no prolonged standing or excessive drivetrain loading. With no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, calipers, or structural corrosion flagged at any point, the MOT history alone reveals no latent mechanical risks. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the high-voltage battery cooling system, tyre sidewall condition, and underbody for EV-specific corrosion given the absence of tester comments cannot confirm component health beyond the test day. The clean five-year record implies the former owner maintained the car to a standard that cleared DVSA scrutiny without remedial defects. Treat the missing advisory data as a sign of good upkeep, not a substitute for a independent pre-purchase examination of wear items the MOT does not measure in depth.
