MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Volkswagen Polo (FT61 LXG) between February 2015 and July 2026.

The record contains 12 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 08 July 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Exhaust & Emissions (11 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Brakes (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
