2025 MG 3 SE 1.5L Petrol · 2905 MH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the recent MOT history indicates a shift from perfect maintenance to reactive repairs. While the car passed its March 2026 test at 20,093 miles, this followed a failure just two miles prior. The trend shows that after two years of clean records in 2024 and 2025, the vehicle is now entering a stage where wear components and structural corrosion require immediate attention rather than preventative care. The mileage profile is low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per annum. Between March 2024 at 11,136 miles and March 2025 at 14,730 miles, the car covered only 3,594 miles. The recent jump of 5,363 miles occurred in the final year leading to the 2026 test. This low usage suggests the vehicle may have sat for long periods, which can lead to surface corrosion on braking components and suspension despite the low mechanical mileage. A buyer must physically inspect the front braking system to ensure the repairs following the March 2026 failure were executed correctly. The tester flagged front brake pads below the 1.5mm threshold and discs that were pitted and scored at 20,091 miles. You should verify that both discs and pads were replaced simultaneously rather than just swapping the pads. Additionally, the failure for corroded corrosion on both rear coil springs warrants a close look at the current structural state of the rear suspension. While the springs passed the test, the presence of corrosion at such low mileage suggests an environment that could lead to structural failure in the future if not monitored.
