Our Verdict
This MG 3 is a solid option for buyers seeking a low-mileage city car. The recent MOT history is clean, showing no recurring defects in the most recent tests.
When inspecting this MG 3, focus on the service history to complement the MOT data. While the MOT records are largely clear, ensure that the 1.5L petrol engine has received regular oil changes, as this is vital for long-term engine health.
Because the vehicle has covered under 40,000 miles in eight years, check for any signs of age-related wear in the interior or rubber components. Negotiate based on the service interval evidence rather than just the MOT pass status, as the MOT is a minimum standard test.
The 1498cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, making it suitable for urban driving. Expect moderate fuel economy typical of a small hatchback in this class.
Tax and insurance groups for the MG 3 are generally positioned competitively for budget-conscious drivers. Maintenance costs should be relatively predictable, though you should budget for standard consumables like tyres and brake pads which may be due given the age, even with the lower mileage.
Inspect the vehicle for any signs of the issue that caused the single MOT failure in January 2025. Although the 2026 MOT passed with no defects, it is worth asking the seller what the specific reason for that failure was to ensure it was a minor, resolved item.
Check the condition of the tyres and brake pads, as these are common areas for advisories in small hatchbacks. Given the white paintwork, look closely for any stone chips or minor scuffs on the bumpers that may have occurred during city driving.
Registered in January 2018, this white 1.5L petrol MG 3 has covered 37,756 miles, which is relatively low for its age. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing, with only one recorded failure in January 2025. The vehicle has maintained a steady mileage increase year-on-year, suggesting regular use.
There is currently no aggregate MOT data available to provide a specific reliability rating for the MG 3 model.
