2013 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Petrol · CV63 NJX

The 2013 Volkswagen Polo presents a stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 10 April 2026 at 79,965 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a clean sequence of examinations. The maintenance trend shows no worsening faults across the available history, with the vehicle clearing every valid test since October 2023. Recorded mileage sits at 79,965 miles against roughly thirteen years of age, equating to about 6,151 miles per year and reflecting typical use for a small hatchback. The gap between the 24 October 2023 test at 57,743 miles and the 19 November 2024 test at 67,426 miles shows modest annual accumulation of under 10,000 miles. The DVSA data is sparse but clean, with no advisories logged on any pass certificate to date. One anomaly requires scrutiny: on 19 November 2024 the vehicle failed at 67,426 miles yet the record lists no defects, before passing on the same day at identical mileage. This suggests an administrative rejection, perhaps relating to documentation or test procedure rather than a mechanical fault, but the buyer should confirm the failure reason with DVLA or the testing station. No recurring suspension bushes, brake disc, caliper, exhaust emission, or structural corrosion issues appear in the chain. Given the unbroken pass record, a pre-purchase inspection should still verify underside structural integrity, coil springs, and binding calipers that a no-defect MOT may not capture on a lightly used car. The low mileage implies potential standing periods, so check for perished rubber components and flat-spotted tyres before committing.
