2021 MG ZS Exclusive VTI-Tech 1.5L Petrol · PK71 EXM

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection in August 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the latest record shows the first signs of mechanical attention with advisories for wear on both the nearside and offside rear brake discs. While these did not result in a failure, they indicate the start of a wear cycle on the braking components following a perfectly clean test record from the previous year. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,138 miles per year. Between the August 2024 test at 11,559 miles and the August 2025 test at 20,688 miles, the car covered 9,129 miles. This acceleration suggests more recent use than the historical average, though low annual mileage can sometimes lead to dry rot in rubber components or brake flat spotting if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A prospective buyer should specifically inspect the rear braking system during a physical viewing to assess the remaining disc thickness. Since the tester flagged both discs as worn at 20,688 miles, a check for uneven wear or corroinned surface ridges is necessary. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also verify the suspension bushes and tyres for cracking or per, as age-related degradation often affects low-use vehicles before mechanical wear becomes a factor.
