MG HS PHEV Trophy - Service Plans

[mani]

Hi everyone,

I’m new to the forum and excited to join the community. I’m getting a brand‑new MG HS PHEV Trophy, and if all goes well, the delivery should be this weekend or early next week.

I have a question regarding the MG service plan. I plan to keep the car for 4–5 years, and I’m buying it outright (no finance). When I checked the MG service calculator for 4 years / up to 10k miles per year, it gave me a total cost of £1,985.74, which includes one MOT.

Here’s the breakdown:

• Year 1 – 15k / 1‑year service: £193.24
• Year 2 – 30k / 2‑year service: £406.15
• Year 3 – 45k / 3‑year service: £374.92
• Year 4 – 60k / 4‑year service: £901.38
• Total: £1,985.74 (including one MOT)

My question is: Is it worth buying the MG service plan, or is it cheaper to just pay for yearly services as needed? I’d really appreciate advice from anyone with experience owning or servicing an MG HS PHEV.

Thanks very much,

Mani

Hi Mani, welcome to the forum.
Here's a link to a previous thread from February which also includes a link to a similar discussion from 2025.
Happy reading.

Thread 'What is a reasonable amount to pay for included maintenance on a lease?'

Jan 16, 2026

Hi,
I've been quoted included maintenance of £47 inc VAT a month on a 3 year lease of an MG HS PHEV Trophy.
Is that too much?
How does it compare with actual service costs?
My concern is that PHEVs are complex (petrol+electric), and there is more to go wrong. I've had reliability problems with other PHEVs in the past.
I haven't been able to check the service plan cost on the MG website because it asks for a VIN, which I don't have.
