2012 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Petrol · VA12 AEK

Based on the DVSA MOT records, the 2012 Volkswagen Polo passed its most recent test on 2025-06-10 at 113,169 miles, with no defects recorded. This outcome suggests that the maintenance trend is stable, with no recurring faults identified in the recent history. The vehicle has demonstrated a consistent ability to meet roadworthiness standards. The recorded mileage pattern for this vehicle is typical for its age, with an average annual mileage of approximately 8,084 miles over the past 14 years. However, there are some notable gaps in the MOT history, particularly between 2023-11-24 and 2024-12-05, where the vehicle accumulated over 4,300 miles in a short period. This rapid mileage accumulation may indicate a period of increased use or neglect, which could have implications for the vehicle's condition. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's suspension and brakes in person, as the history suggests recurring faults in these areas. The failed tests on 2023-11-24 at 105,892 miles, where the vehicle failed due to binding rear brakes, and the failed test on the same day with no defects recorded, indicate a potential issue with the brake system. Furthermore, the vehicle's structural integrity should be assessed for signs of corrosion or rust, particularly given the failed test on 2023-11-24, which was not specified.
