2020 MG HS Exclusive 1.5L Petrol · AF70 CUH

The MG HS Exclusive presents as roadworthy following its most recent September 2025 test at 54,161 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the three-year history, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. The repeated same-day fail and pass entries in 2024 and 2025 at identical mileages suggest administrative re-tests rather than unresolved defects, and no worsening pattern emerges from the data. Recorded mileage rose from 33,448 in August 2023 to 41,642 by September 2024, then to 54,161 by September 2025, equating to roughly 9,000 miles per year across the period. This aligns with typical use for a six-year-old vehicle and shows no rapid accumulation or suspicious gaps. The DVSA record is sparse and clean, listing no corrosion, suspension wear, brake issues, or emission failures at any test. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age, as MOT pass with no defects does not capture wear below test thresholds. The same-day fail and pass cycles in 2024 and 2025 warrant confirmation that no genuine fault was suppressed through retest procedure. Previous owners appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance, though the duplicated failure entries imply test-centre processing rather than owner neglect. No recurring consumable or mechanical trend requires corrective action based on the official record.
