2018 Volkswagen Polo 1.0L Petrol · CM18 DPM

The most recent MOT on 17 March 2026 at 24,130 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance trend is stable across the five‑year testing window. Mileage has risen from 14,447 miles in May 2022 to 24,130 miles in March 2026, an average of roughly 3,000 miles per year. This low‑kilometre profile for a 2018 model suggests light usage rather than excessive wear, and the incremental increases align neatly with each annual test, showing no abrupt spikes or unexplained gaps. A prospective buyer should verify tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, as low mileage does not guarantee recent tyre replacement. Inspect suspension bushings and coil springs for any signs of corrosion or fatigue, and confirm that brake pads and discs are within service limits, given the absence of recorded brake advisories. A visual check for rust on wheel arches, under‑body panels, and around the exhaust system will further assure that no hidden structural deterioration has been missed despite the clean MOT history.
