2021 MG ZS Exclusive T-GDI Auto 1.0L Petrol · CU21 RYA

The MG ZS presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 February 2026 at 59,300 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following an anomalous failure on the same date and mileage where the tester logged no defects, indicating an administrative or process error rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests on 7 February 2025 at 46,231 miles and 7 March 2024 at 33,190 miles also passed cleanly with no advisories, showing no worsening condition across the recorded history. The mileage pattern sits at typical use for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 11,860 miles per year against the 59,300 miles recorded. The jump from 33,190 miles in March 2024 to 46,231 miles in February 2025 added 13,041 miles, then 13,069 miles to February 2026, a consistent annual rate with no standing periods or sudden accumulation. The DVSA record is sparse but entirely clean, with no flagged consumable wear, suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions issues across any entry. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the unblemished record. The clean MOT history offers no evidence of recurring mechanical or structural risk, yet the same-day fail and pass in February 2026 warrants confirmation that no suppressed advisory exists on the DVLA portal. Given the age and mileage, examine front coil springs, wishbone bushes, and brake caliper operation for early wear not yet at test threshold. Check underside structural integrity and exhaust mountings for corrosion given MG's mixed anti-corrosion record on this platform. The previous owner maintained test compliance strictly, but a clean MOT is not a substitute for a ramp inspection of drivetrain mounts and automatic gearbox fluid condition at 59,300 miles.
