2013 Volkswagen Polo 1.4L Petrol · CU13 NJF

This 2013 Volkswagen Polo has a typical mileage profile for its age, suggesting consistent use rather than excessive wear or long periods of standing. The most recent MOT in May 2026 passed, but only after a failure due to dangerously low tyre tread on the nearside rear. The vehicle is currently showing a worsening trend regarding basic maintenance, with tyre wear and deterioration becoming a recurring theme over the last two years. A concerning pattern of neglect is emerging. In 2025, the car failed on multiple lighting faults and worn front suspension arm bushes. By 2026, the focus shifted to multiple tyres worn close to or below the legal limit. This suggests a reactive approach to maintenance where components are run until they fail or become illegal rather than being replaced preventatively. While the mileage is average, the recurring suspension and tyre issues indicate that the chassis and consumables are feeling the effects of its 110,945 miles. A buyer should first inspect the current condition and brand of all four tyres to ensure they were properly replaced after the latest failure. You must also check the front suspension for any knocks or play, as the bushes were flagged as worn in 2025 and may have deteriorated further.
