2010 VOLKSWAGEN POLO1.2L Petrol

This Volkswagen Polo is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 28 February 2026 at 151,777 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last three years, suggesting the vehicle is being maintained to a standard that satisfies DVSA requirements. The mileage is typical for a sixteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 9,486 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between 15 December 2023 and 17 December 2024, where the odometer rose from 133,259 to 148,383 miles. This period of higher activity did not result in any new mechanical failures or advisories, indicating the drivetrain and chassis handled the increased load without immediate degradation. The record shows two instances where the car failed and passed on the same day, specifically on 15 December 2023 and 17 December 2024. While the specific reasons for these failures are not listed in the provided data, same-day resolutions usually point to minor consumable issues like blown bulbs or wiper blades. There are no recurring mentions of structural corrosion, suspension bush failure, or brake disc wear across the history. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the underbody for surface rust, as the MOT record is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age and mileage. Focus on checking the condition of the coil springs and checking for any play in the steering rack. Given the lack of advisories, the primary concern remains the general wear and tear associated with 151,777 miles rather than any specific documented fault.
