Our Verdict
The 2021 MG 5 EXCLUSIVE presents a low-risk purchase with mostly clean MOT records, though the near-limit tyre wear in 2026 warrants attention. Its electric drivetrain and low mileage make it a practical choice for city commuting.
Inspect the tyres immediately – the near-limit wear noted in January 2026 suggests they may need replacement soon. While the vehicle has no major MOT failures, verify the service history to confirm regular maintenance of the electric powertrain. Negotiate based on the tyre replacement cost and check for any outstanding manufacturer warranties. Be cautious of 'clean' MOT records that may not reflect underlying electrical system health.
As an electric vehicle, this MG 5 EXCLUSIVE has zero road tax and low energy costs – expect around £8-£12 for a full charge. Insurance group details aren't available, but EVs typically fall in mid-range groups. Maintenance costs are lower than petrol equivalents, though battery health checks are critical. Estimated annual running costs: £800-£1,000 including charging and routine servicing.
Focus on the tyres – replace them if they're near the legal limit. Inspect the electric vehicle's charging port and cable for damage. Check the battery health through diagnostic tools, as EV batteries can degrade over time. Review service records for any electrical system work. Confirm the vehicle's software is up-to-date, as updates can affect performance and safety.
This 2021 MG 5 EXCLUSIVE has 29,686 miles and a mostly clean MOT history, with only minor tyre wear recorded in its most recent inspection. As an electric vehicle, it benefits from zero road tax and lower running costs, though its lack of aggregate reliability data means buyers should prioritise thorough pre-purchase checks.
No aggregate MOT data available for the MG 5 EXCLUSIVE model, making it difficult to assess broader reliability trends.
