2019 MG 3 1.5L Petrol · AF69 BAV

The 2019 MG 3 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 27 August 2025 at 49,707 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Prior to that, the vehicle passed cleanly on 6 September 2024 at 40,952 miles and on 7 September 2023 at 31,252 miles. The only blemish in the record is a failure on 2 September 2024 at 40,911 miles, reversed four days later by a pass with no defects listed on either certificate. This suggests an administrative or minor pre-check issue rather than a serious mechanical fault, and the overall pattern shows no worsening condition. The mileage progression is consistent with typical use for a seven-year-old car. The record shows 23,329 miles on 21 October 2022, rising to 31,252 by September 2023, then 40,911 to 40,952 across early September 2024, and 49,707 by August 2025. That averages roughly 7,100 miles per year with no sudden accumulation spikes or unexplained gaps. The clean advisory history across all passes indicates the previous owner kept basic consumables and structural items within test limits, though the sparse defect data limits deeper insight into wear patterns. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the low but steady annual mileage, as light use can mask intermittent corrosion or binding calipers not caught in a pass. The September 2024 failure with no recorded defect warrants a check of the DVSA failure reason through the full certificate, since the quick re-test implies a rectified item rather than a cleared fault. No recurring tyre, exhaust, or structural advisories appear, so serious mechanical risk from the record alone is low.
