2010 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Petrol · AJ09 NAS

The Volkswagen Polo presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 12 December 2025 at 91,245 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, showing clean passes in December 2023, 2024, and 2025. Two administrative failures appear on the same test dates in 2023 and 2025 with zero defects logged, indicating clerical or process issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. At roughly 16 years old the car shows 91,245 recorded miles, an average of about 5,703 miles per year. This is low for its age. Annual increments are consistent and modest: 76,523 miles in December 2023, 83,861 in December 2024, and 91,245 in December 2025, giving around 7,300 miles per year over that span. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of rapid accumulation or neglected intervals, though low use can mask perished rubber components and corrosion from standing. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion given the vehicle's age and low annual mileage. Brake discs and calipers warrant checking for binding or uneven wear after periods of light use. The absence of advisories across three years suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but the twin zero-defect failures on test days mean the buyer should confirm the V5C and test certificate details match before purchase.
