VOLKSWAGEN POLO2017 · 1.2L Petrol

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable and clean maintenance trend. The most recent test on January 20 2026 at 52,097 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, maintaining a consistent streak of clean results. Following a single failure in early 2023, the car has undergone three consecutive inspections without a single advisory note, suggesting the current owner has addressed previous issues and maintained the vehicle to a high standard. The mileage profile is low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,789 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage between February 2023 and February 2024, where the car covered nearly 9,000 miles in a single year. However, usage has slowed again since, with only 7,927 miles recorded between the February 2024 and the January 2026 tests. This low annual mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can occasionally lead to flat spotting if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods. While the MOT history is exemplary, a buyer should still inspect specific areas associated with low-mileage vehicles. Low use can sometimes cause rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre boots, to age and crack despite minimal physical wear. Since the record shows no history of corrosion or brake issues, the physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity of the underside and the condition of the brake discs to ensure they have not developed surface due to lack of use.
