Anyone got the dreaded seat tear on Mg5 2021

[Jones886]

Hi all just wondering if anyone has had the driver's side seat tear on the leather in the MG5. Mg has said that it's not covered under warranty and it's £190 for a replacement cover, I fell off my chair when they said it's £336 for labour.

Anyone had to tackle this issue and get some prices from other garages


Cheers Dan

Thread 'MG5 Upholstery Wear'

Feb 18, 2025

I have read some threads regarding seat wear in MG models. The photo below was taken from an advert on AutoTrader - the car has done 127,000 miles. Not sure of the year but it is a long range version.
Obviously I have no idea how the vehicle has been used, for example as a Taxi or just a single high mileage user.

The drivers seat wear in the photo looks reasonable.

I would post the advert but I am not sure of the Forum Rules regarding posting an advert. It is with an MG Dealer and is up for £8,390.

Photo of the drivers seat wear was the main point of this post
