2021 MG HS Excite 1.5L Petrol · B26 MBH

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status with an improving maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 22 August 2025 at 49,560 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in the previous year were successfully addressed. This transition from flagged faults to a clean pass suggests proactive attention to repairs. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between the August 2024 and August 2025 tests, the car covered 5,801 miles, reflecting a regular pattern of use rather than long periods of stagnation. This consistent usage is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and braking components, as it prevents the premature corrosion often seen in stationary vehicles. A buyer should verify the braking system during a physical inspection to ensure previous repairs remain effective. The August 2024 test at 43,759 miles flagged worn and pitted rear brake discs along with thin brake pads. While the 2025 test clears these issues, it is essential to confirm that new components were actually fitted and that the calipers are not binding or wearing unevenly. Given the age and mileage, a quick check of the suspension bushes and tyre tread for signs of uneven wear is also advisable, as these are common areas of degradation on vehicles of this specification.
