2008 Volkswagen Polo 1.4L Petrol · FV08 ACJ

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT pass on 6 February 2026 at 104,479 miles was achieved with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any listed advisories or mechanical failures over the last three years. The mileage is notably low for an eighteen year old car, averaging roughly 5,804 miles per year. Between 8 February 2024 and 6 February 2026, the odometer moved from 100,554 to 104,479 miles. A discrepancy appears in the January 2025 entry, where the vehicle was recorded at 104,658 miles, which is higher than the 104,479 miles recorded a year later in February 2026. This suggests either a clerical error during the 2025 test or a mileage rollback, both of which require clarification. The absence of recorded defects, advisories, or recurring failures across the 2024, 2025, and 2026 tests indicates a well-maintained vehicle. There are no flags for corrosion, suspension bush wear, or brake deterioration in the official record. The lack of data regarding consumable wear such as tyre tread or wiper blades is unusual for a car of this age. A physical inspection should focus on signs of long-term standing, such as perished rubber seals or battery health, given the low annual usage. The buyer must verify the odometer reading against the 2025 record to resolve the mileage inconsistency. Checking for structural rust on the underbody is advised, as the MOT record provides no specific data on the chassis condition.
