2020 MG HS Excite 1.5L Petrol · PN70 AUH

This MG HS Excite presents a clean MOT history with no recorded defects across its four most recent tests, spanning from September 2023 to September 2025. The absence of advisories or failures in the latest examination—conducted just eight months ago at 43,999 miles—indicates a stable maintenance trend, with no signs of recurring mechanical or structural issues. The only anomaly lies in the duplicate entries for September 2025, where the vehicle was tested twice on the same day with identical mileage, though both passed without comment. Such a flawless record suggests either meticulous upkeep or, less likely, a vehicle that has been lightly used or stored intermittently. The mileage accumulation of 7,333 miles per year aligns closely with the average for a six-year-old vehicle, though the data reveals a slight irregularity: the gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests shows a jump of 7,953 miles in just 12 months, compared to the 9,203-mile increase between 2023 and 2024. This suggests a period of heavier use or a potential delay in testing, though neither pattern raises immediate red flags. The consistency in passing without defects, however, implies that any increased wear from higher mileage has either been addressed proactively or has not yet manifested in critical areas. Given the lack of recorded issues, a prospective buyer should still prioritise a thorough inspection of key wear points, particularly the suspension components—such as coil springs, anti-roll bars, and bushings—given the vehicle’s age and mileage. While the MOT history shows no brake-related advisories, binding calipers or uneven disc wear could still develop, so a visual check of brake pads, discs, and fluid condition is advisable. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as corrosion or fatigue in high-stress areas like the subframe, wheel arches, or exhaust mounts can emerge even without prior MOT mention. The absence of defects in the records is encouraging, but a hands-on evaluation will confirm whether the vehicle’s condition matches its paper trail.
