Our Verdict
A solid option for those seeking a predi
When inspecting this specific 1.2L petrol Polo, focus on the service history to complement the clean MOT data. While the MOTs show no defects, they do not confirm regular oil changes or belt replacements, which are vital for this engine size.
Check the tyre tread depth and condition specifically, as 'tyre' is one of the most common failure reasons for this model across the wider Volkswagen Polo dataset. Additionally, verify the operation of all lighting and the condition of the suspension components, as ball joint issues are a frequent failure point for this vehicle type.
The 1197cc petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group, making it suitable for various driver profiles. Fuel economy for this era of Polo is typically efficient for urban and suburban driving, though actual figures will depend on driving style and load.
Maintenance costs for a Volkswagen are generally predictable, though parts can be slightly more expensive than for budget-tier competitors. Expect standard servicing costs for consumables like tyres, brakes, and wipers. An estimated annual running cost of £900-£1,200 should cover fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance.
Given the MOT history shows no defects, you should perform a thorough manual check of items that often slip through or are corrected between tests. Specifically, examine the tyres for uneven wear and check the brake pads and discs for thickness.
Because 'ball joint' is a common failure reason in the aggregate data for this model, listen for any knocking or clunking sounds from the front suspension when driving over speed bumps. Also, check the engine bay for any signs of fluid leaks, as the MOT record only confirms the vehicle passed the official test parameters.
This 2013 black Volkswagen Polo 1.2L petrol has covered 95,775 miles since its first registration in October 2013. The MOT history is notably consistent, showing five consecutive passes from 2021 to 2025 without a single recorded defect or failure. While the mileage is higher than the model average of 6,004 miles per year, the lack of recorded issues provides a stable data set for potential buyers.
Aggregate data for the Volkswagen Polo shows a 77.3% average MOT pass rate, with common issues relating to tyres, engine lights, and ball joints.
