Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to high mileage
Given the mileage is nearly ten times the annual average for this model, you should prioritize a thorough service history check to ensure the engine has been maintained under heavy use. Negotiate based on the high mileage, as this will impact future resale value.
Specifically, ask for evidence that the coolant leak identified in the 2025 MOT was professionally repaired and not just topped up. You should also confirm that all seat belts, including the central rear belt mentioned in the 2025 failure, are fully operational and retracting correctly.
With a 1.5L petrol engine, running costs should be moderate. You should check the specific tax band for this 2022 registration, but typically these models fall into mid-range insurance groups.
Maintenance costs may be influenced by the high mileage; expect more frequent replacements of wear-and-tear items like tyres and brake components. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance, are likely to be in the mid-to-high range due to the heavy annual usage.
A primary inspection point should be the cooling system. The 2025 MOT failure noted a coolant leak near the expansion bottle area; ensure there are no remaining signs of residue or dampness in the engine bay.
Check the condition of all four tyres, as the previous record noted cuts to both rear tyres. Additionally, test the functionality of all windscreen wiper blades and ensure the central rear seat belt retracts smoothly, addressing the specific failures recorded in the May 2025 test.
This 2022 MG HS Exclusive S-A has covered 76,663 miles in approximately four years, which is significantly higher than the model average of 7,691 miles per year. The MOT history shows a failure in May 2025 involving a coolant leak, tyre damage, and a faulty rear seat belt. Although it passed its most recent test in May 2026 without defects, the high usage profile remains a key factor.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 89.8% average MOT pass rate across 13,584 analysed vehicles.
