2015 Volkswagen Polo 1.0L Petrol · FV15 AEM

The vehicle holds a valid MOT pass from October 2025 at 99,537 miles with no defects recorded, so it is currently roadworthy and the maintenance trend appears stable. The only recent mechanical issue was flagged in October 2024, when the car failed on a fractured nearside rear coil spring and light oil misting on the offside front shock absorber. That fault was corrected, and the subsequent October 2025 test, a full year later, passed cleanly, indicating the suspension work has held up properly. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual use. The car recorded 71,222 miles in October 2022, 80,070 miles in October 2023, 90,042 miles in October 2024, and 99,537 miles in October 2025. That works out to roughly 9,000 to 10,000 miles per year, which is entirely normal for an eleven-year-old Polo. There are no gaps in the test history or any sudden mileage spikes, so the car has been used regularly and serviced within a predictable yearly cycle. A buyer should still inspect the suspension components closely in person, especially the front shock absorbers and all coil springs, to confirm the previously replaced parts show no fresh oil seepage or cracking. The rear brakes and tyre treads have not raised any advisories in this history, but at nearly 100,000 miles, these consumables will likely require attention soon. Structural corrosion has never been flagged on this vehicle, which is a positive sign, but a used-car inspection should still include a look underneath the car for any surface rust developing on the subframes or suspension mounting points.
