2019 MG ZS Exclusive EV Electric · P8 OON

The 2019 MG ZS Exclusive EV holds a clean MOT certificate from 13 October 2025 at 48,808 miles, with zero defects recorded. This is a significant improvement over the preceding years. The maintenance trend is clearly resolving. Between 2022 and 2024, testers repeatedly flagged worn and pitted front and rear brake discs, yet the October 2025 test shows no such issues. That suggests the discs and pads were replaced and the braking system is now in good order. The absence of any advisory or failure on the most recent certificate indicates a well-maintained vehicle at present. The mileage accumulation is broadly typical for a seven-year-old car. Annual use sits around 6,973 miles, calculated from the 48,808 miles recorded today. Looking at the intervals, the car covered roughly 5,525 miles between November 2023 and November 2024, then approximately 4,948 miles between November 2024 and October 2025. There is a slight tapering of mileage in the most recent year, but nothing alarming. No large gaps or sudden spikes appear in the record, and the MOT entries line up with the expected annual cycle. Despite the clean recent result, the recurring brake disc wear flagged in 2022 and 2024 warrants attention. Pitted and scored discs on both axles suggest the car may have sat unused for periods or been driven gently enough to cause disc corrosion rather than even wear. A buyer should inspect the current disc thickness, pad condition, and caliper operation to confirm the replacements are holding up. On an EV of this age, also check the regenerative braking function and handbrake mechanism, as rear calipers on electric vehicles can seize if not exercised regularly. The 2023 advisory for inner-edge wear on both front tyres points to possible tracking or suspension bush wear. Even though no tyre defect appeared in the later tests, a buyer should still examine the inner sidewalls and tread for uneven wear patterns. Given the low-mileage profile, suspension components such as drop links, anti-roll bar bushes, and front lower arm bushes deserve a close visual check. Corrosion on the subframe and suspension mounting points is worth inspecting too, as EVs with light-use histories can suffer from surface rust rather than mechanical wear.
