2011 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Diesel · CV61 FRF

The 2011 Volkswagen Polo presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 March 2026 at 80,106 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results across the available history. Mileage sits low for a fifteen-year-old car at 80,106 miles, averaging roughly 5,340 miles per year. The record shows steady annual use: 65,684 miles on 26 June 2023, 72,853 on 3 July 2024, 77,235 on 8 March 2025, and 80,106 on 3 March 2026. No large gaps or sudden accumulation appear. The DVSA data is sparse but clean, with only a duplicate 26 June 2023 entry showing both a fail and pass at identical mileage and no defects listed, suggesting an administrative re-test rather than a genuine fault. No advisories or defects were flagged across any test, so the history reveals no recurring suspension, brake, or corrosion issues. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of coil springs, suspension bushes, brake discs, and underbody structural integrity, as MOT passes at low mileage can mask age-related perishing in rubber components and hidden rust where the tester found no cause to record. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to a basic passing standard with light use. The absence of repeated tyre or wiper failures indicates routine consumable care was not neglected. Given the low annual mileage, check for deterioration from standing such as flat-spotted tyres or seized calipers during any pre-purchase examination.
