2016 VOLKSWAGEN POLO1.2L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT record at the most recent inspection. The November 2025 test at 69,906 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a successful inspection in November 2024 at 60,095 miles, which suggests that previous issues were rectified promptly. The single failure recorded on 11 November 2024 at 60,095 miles indicates a minor setback that did not persist into subsequent testing, suggesting the vehicle is being kept to a consistent standard. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical ten-year usage pattern for a 2016 Volkswagen Polo. The vehicle has covered 69,906 miles, averaging approximately 6,991 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 40,215 miles in November 2022 to 60,095 miles in November 2024, and finally to 69,906 miles in November 2025. This steady increment suggests regular road use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally positive for maintaining engine seals and battery health. While the MOT history shows no recurring mechanical or structural faults, a physical inspection should focus on common wear items for a vehicle of this age and mileage. Given the consistent annual mileage, check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue. Although the MOT records do not flag any issues, a manual check of the brake discs for uneven wear and the calipers for binding is advisable. Inspect the underside for any signs of rising corrosion on the exhaust system or structural components to ensure no hidden degradation exists that the MOT tester may have missed.
