2021 MG 5 Exclusive Electricity · SB21 WMP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recurring pattern of brake component degradation. The most recent test on 09 June 2026 at 36,737 miles passed despite an advisory for front brake discs being pitted and scored. This follows a failure in June 2025 where the rear discs were flagged for similar wear. While the car remains legal, the persistent presence of disc corrosion across both axles suggests a lack of preventative replacement of braking hardware. The mileage profile is remarkably consistent for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,350 miles per year. The car progressed from 22,092 miles in June 2024 to 30,651 miles in June 2025, and reached 36,737 miles by June 2026. This steady usage suggests regular road miles rather than long periods of stagnation, which often contributes to the pitting seen on the brake rotors. The data shows no unusual gaps between testing intervals. A buyer must physically inspect the braking system for the extent of surface rust. The repeated reports of pitting and scoring on the discs indicate that the metal may be thinning or that the calipers are not clearing the pads effectively, leading to accelerated environmental corrosion. Attention should also focus on the tyres, as the 2024 test noted an offside front tyre worn to the edge and the 2025 failure resulted from a structural bulge on the offside rear. These entries suggest that previous owners ignored alignment issues or tyre condition until failure occurred, rather than proactively replacing consumables.
