2017 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Petrol · DC66 YPJ

The Volkswagen Polo presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 4 December 2025 at 78,322 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior annual tests in December 2024, 2023, and 2022 also passed cleanly, showing no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the available history. The single failure logged on 3 December 2024 at 62,047 miles carries no recorded defects, indicating an administrative or presentational anomaly rather than a genuine mechanical defect at that time. Annual mileage averages around 8,700 miles against the car's nine-year age, a typical use profile for a 2017 supermini. The records show consistent yearly increments: 37,675 miles in December 2022, 49,112 in December 2023, 62,047 in December 2024, and 78,322 by December 2025. The roughly 12,000 to 16,000 mile gaps between tests reflect steady private use with no standing periods or abrupt accumulation spikes. The clean test sequence across five years suggests the previous owner kept basic servicing current. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's advancing age and mileage. The MOT data flags no corrosion, exhaust emissions breaches, or structural integrity concerns, so no specific component trend demands urgent attention. Verify the 3 December 2024 failure entry with the selling garage to confirm it was a paperwork duplication rather than a concealed defect.
