2022 MG HS Exclusive 1.5L Petrol · A28 SEH

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT on July 10, 2025. The maintenance trend shows a reactive correction of a critical defect after the car failed the test just one day prior. While the initial failure at 26,935 miles indicated a significant oversight regarding the rear braking system, the immediate pass confirms that the owner addressed the necessary mechanical repairs to meet DVSA safety standards. At 26,936 miles over four years of age, the vehicle has averaged approximately 6,734 miles per year. This usage profile aligns with typical UK driving patterns for a family SUV, suggesting relatively low stress on the drivetrain and suspension components. The gap between the failure and the subsequent pass shows only one mile of travel, indicating that the wear on the rear brakes was likely due to reaching a service interval or a lack of routine visual inspections rather than high-mileage attrition. A buyer should verify the quality of the recent brake repair to ensure the replacement pads and discs were fitted to specification. Since the tester flagged both thin-out pads and significantly worn discs, it is necessary to check for uneven heat spotting or signs of caliper glazing on the new components. Given the low overall mileage, the structural integrity of the underbody should remain good, but a physical inspection of the suspension bushes is advisable to rule premature cracking if the vehicle has sat for long periods between uses.
