2022 MG ZS Excite VTI-Tech 1.5L Petrol · GJ72 AEF

The vehicle's most recent MOT test on 18 August 2026 shows a pass with no recorded defects. This indicates an improving maintenance trend compared to the previous year, where the vehicle failed its inspection. The recorded mileage of 38,757 miles is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 9,689 miles per year. The MOT history is relatively sparse, covering only three tests between September 2025 and August 2026. The data shows a significant gap between the 2025 failure and the 2026 pass, but the mileage accumulation appears steady and typical for a vehicle of this age. The failure on 1 September 2025 highlighted a dangerous condition regarding the nearside rear brake disc, which the tester found excessively corroded and pitted on the inner friction surface. An advisory at that same test noted the offside rear brake disc was also worn, pitted, and scored. While the 2026 test shows these issues were resolved, a buyer should inspect the rear braking system, including the discs, pads, and calipers, to ensure the corrosion has not affected other components or led to binding. A physical inspection of the braking hardware and the condition of the rear hubs is recommended to confirm the quality of the recent repairs. Given the previous reports of heavy corrosion on the inner surfaces of the discs, checking for any signs of surface rust or uneven wear on the remaining braking components is a prudent step.
