2014 Volkswagen Polo 1.0L Petrol · AB08 AVA

The Volkswagen Polo presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 23 June 2025 at 58,982 miles which recorded no defects. Prior to this, the vehicle passed cleanly on 18 September 2024 at 49,746 miles. The history shows no advisories or mechanical faults across any recorded examination, indicating consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards over the observed period. The mileage pattern reflects light use for a 2014 registered vehicle. The record shows 39,011 miles at the September 2023 test, rising to 49,745 miles in September 2024 and 58,982 miles by June 2025. That equates to roughly 10,000 miles in the first interval and 9,200 in the second, averaging near 4,900 miles per year overall. The two failed entries on 12 September 2023 and 18 September 2024 carry identical mileages to the subsequent passes on the same dates and list no defects, pointing to administrative re-tests rather than mechanical rectification. Given the absence of flagged wear on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion, the MOT data alone reveals no recurring faults requiring intervention. The clean record suggests previous owners maintained statutory test compliance, though no insight into consumable condition between tests exists. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of tyre tread depth, wiper blades, and underbody for latent corrosion given the low annual mileage implies potential prolonged standing. Verify the September 2023 and 2024 failure reasons with the test station, as the zero-defect listings remain anomalous against the fail outcomes.
