2017 VOLKSWAGEN POLO1.8L Petrol

The vehicle presents a highly stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean MOT pass on 23 August 2025 at 70,510 miles. The absence of any recorded defects or advisories across the last four consecutive annual tests indicates a rigorous approach to preventative maintenance. This consistent performance suggests that the mechanical systems, including the braking, steering, and suspension components, have been managed effectively by previous keepers, with no recurring failures or underlying structural concerns identified by testers during this period. The recorded mileage of 70,510 miles over nine years averages approximately 7,834 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this class. A notable gap exists between the test on 24 August 2022 and the test on 23 August 2023, where the vehicle covered roughly 8,830 miles, following a period of lower accumulation between October 2020 and August 2022. This steady progression confirms the vehicle has remained in regular operation rather than suffering from prolonged periods of inactivity, which often lead to seized calipers, perished rubber seals, or battery degradation. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components reach a stage in the vehicle's lifecycle where natural fatigue occurs regardless of a clean MOT history. While the electronic record shows no issues, checking the brake discs for surface corrosion and ensuring the exhaust system remains free of leaks or heavy oxidation is prudent given the age of the car. The current lack of advisories provides a strong baseline, but a thorough visual check of the undercarriage and tyre sidewalls remains essential to confirm that the vehicle's condition matches the positive trajectory shown in the DVSA data.
