2014 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Petrol · FL14 MPZ

The 2014 Volkswagen Polo presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 16 March 2026 at 87,253 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from January 2024 through January 2025 also passed clean. The only blemish is a failed test on 4 November 2022 at 56,247 miles, reversed four days later on 8 November 2022 at 56,249 miles with a pass and no defects logged, indicating a likely administrative or minor rectification rather than a serious mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits at 87,253 against roughly 12 years of use, equating to about 7,271 miles per year and matching typical expectations for the model age. The gap between the November 2022 tests and the January 2024 entry shows 8,582 miles added over fourteen months, a modest accumulation that suggests gentle private use rather than high-load commuting. The clean slate across all passing tests means the DVSA data gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and the unexplained 2022 failure. Though no advisories appear in the record, twelve-year-old VW corrosion protection on sills and subframes warrants visual checks for structural rust. The absence of recurring faults points to reasonable previous ownership, but the 2022 fail with no stated defect demands confirmation that any rectification was properly completed rather than a paperwork correction.
