2021 MG 5 Excite Electricity · LC71 DWE

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend despite minor recurring issues. The most recent test on 24 October 2025 at 28,400 miles resulted in a pass with only an advisory for a deteriorated central rear registration plate. This is a cosmetic defect that does not impact safety, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have maintained passing standards since the previous inspection. The mileage profile indicates low usage for its age, covering only 28,400 miles over approximately five years. This averages to roughly 5,700 miles per annum. Between the October 2024 test at 19,643 miles and the October 2025 test, the car covered 8,757 miles. While low mileage generally results in less wear on the drivetrain and suspension, the intervals can sometimes lead to flat spotting tyres or brake corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should specifically inspect the front tyres during a physical viewing. The October 2024 test flagged both the nearside and offside front tyres as worn close to the legal limit and on the edge, which often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. While these were likely replaced by the 2025 test, the previous wear pattern suggests a need for a geometry check to prevent premature replacement. The deteriorated rear registration plate should also be replaced to ensure full compliance and avoid future advisories.
