2021 MG 5 Exclusive EV Electricity · K6 XSF

This vehicle presents a mixed picture with a very recent MOT pass in May 2026, but the history reveals significant wear consistent with its extremely high mileage. At five years old, covering 173,903 miles averages nearly 35,000 miles per year, which is exceptional for a private car and suggests heavy commercial use or extensive commuting. This intensity places substantial stress on the electric drivetrain and chassis components. The most recent test shows a concerning pattern of reactive maintenance. The car failed on May 11, 2026, and passed on May 15, 2026, at the same mileage. This indicates repairs were carried out solely to clear the test rather than as part of ongoing upkeep. Recurring defects include windscreen wipers failing to clear effectively in both 2024 and 2026, alongside multiple lighting faults across both years. These repeated minor failures often signal neglect between inspections. Safety risks are evident in the tyre history. In 2024, the nearside front tyre had exposed ply or cords, which is a dangerous failure.
