2018 Volkswagen Polo 1.0L Petrol · CX68 XHH

The 2018 Volkswagen Polo presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 21 October 2025 at 51,287 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT results across the vehicle's life. Annual mileage has averaged roughly 6,400 miles, consistent with typical use for an eight-year-old car. The records show steady annual accumulation: 19,003 miles in October 2021, 26,921 by October 2022, 35,716 in October 2023, 43,555 in October 2024, and 51,287 in October 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps appear in the data, and every test passed without advisories, which suggests the previous owner kept the car to a regular service and testing schedule. With five consecutive passes and zero advisories, the MOT history reveals no recurring faults in suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion. The absence of any flagged wear items means the record alone gives no cause for concern over hidden mechanical risk. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean record. Low-stress mileage and standing periods can mask perished rubber components or surface corrosion not caught in a pass result. Verify tyre sidewall condition, underbody structural integrity, and brake caliper freedom before purchase, as these areas fall outside what a fault-free MOT confirms.
