2015 Volkswagen Polo 1.0L Petrol · CE15 OLG

The vehicle presents a stable and improving maintenance profile, with the most recent MOT on 25 March 2026 at 22,787 miles showing a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent four-year streak of defect-free tests dating back to March 2022. The inspection history indicates that previous mechanical and structural issues have been successfully addressed, moving the vehicle from a failed state in early 2020 to a period of consistent compliance. The mileage pattern confirms exceptionally low usage for an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,072 miles per year. The recorded data shows a steady, incremental increase in distance between tests, growing from 4,876 miles in March 2019 to the current 22,787 miles. While this low mileage suggests minimal wear on drivetrain components, the long intervals between uses can sometimes lead to secondary issues such as tyre perishing or fluid degradation, though the recent clean MOTs suggest these have not become problematic. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the outer sill area to ensure the dent noted in the March 2020 test has not progressed into significant corrosion. Although the 2020 failure highlighted pitted front brake discs and a rear brake imbalance, the subsequent clean records suggest these consumables were replaced or serviced. It remains prudent to check the condition of the tyres for any signs of cracking or sidewall perishing, as the 2020 record specifically flagged both rear and nearside front tyres for this issue. Given the low annual mileage, the mechanical components should be in good condition, but the inspector should verify that the battery and rubber seals have been maintained. The absence of any advisories in the last four years suggests the vehicle has transitioned from a period of neglected upkeep to a much more disciplined maintenance regime.
