2020 MG 3 1.5L Petrol · CK20 HGG

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend following a specific mechanical failure. The most recent test conducted in July 2025 at 41,663 miles was a pass, though it introduced an advisory for an offside front tyre worn near the legal limit and showing edge wear. This represents an improvement over the July 2023 test where the vehicle failed due to a serious fluid leak on the nearside rear shock absorber. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use urban vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per annum. The data shows steady progression, with roughly 9,000 miles covered between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 8,700 miles between July 2024 and July 2025. This regularity suggests the car has not been subjected to extreme long-distance stress, though low annual mileage can sometimes lead to component drying or out if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should inspect the front suspension geometry in person, as the edge wear noted on the offside front tyre in 2025 often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. While the nearside rear shock absorber was replaced following the 2023 failure, a physical check of the remaining dampers is advisable to ensure no secondary leaks have developed. Given the age of the vehicle, checking the structural integrity of the underbody for early signs of corrosion remains a standard requirement.
