2021 MG HS Excite Phev Auto 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · BH71 MAR

The MG HS PHEV presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend across its recorded tests. The most recent examination on 9 February 2026 at 22,076 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. Prior tests on 10 February 2025 at 13,106 miles and 19 September 2024 at 12,601 miles also achieved passes with zero advisories. The vehicle shows no worsening or recurring mechanical faults through the official DVSA MOT dataset. Mileage accumulation reflects light use for a five-year-old vehicle. The record shows 12,601 miles on 19 September 2024, rising only to 13,106 miles by 10 February 2025, a mere 505 miles over five months. A larger jump to 22,076 miles by 9 February 2026 indicates roughly 8,970 miles added in the subsequent twelve months, still below average annual expectation. Such a pattern suggests the earlier owner kept the car predominantly idle or on short trips, then possibly increased usage before sale. The sparse yet clean history implies previous owners did not skip basic upkeep. Buyers should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the unblemished MOT trail. Low mileage combined with prolonged standing raises the risk of surface corrosion on brake discs and potential binding calipers from lack of use. The tester never flagged suspension bushes or coil springs, but rubber components can perish with age regardless of distance covered. Examine tyre sidewalls for cracking and verify exhaust emissions system integrity given the plug-in hybrid drivetrain's intermittent combustion engine operation. Structural integrity appears sound per the recorded tests, with no corrosion or chassis advisories noted. A pre-purchase check should nonetheless confirm underbody condition and look for any undocumented accident repair. The absent defect list across three consecutive passes signals a well-maintained example, yet mechanical items unseen by MOT scrutiny warrant hands-on assessment.
