2010 Volkswagen Polo 1.4L Petrol · FV60 AEP

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 29 May 2025 at 19,382 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to September 2021, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is remarkably low for a 2010 model, averaging roughly 1,211 miles per year. The odometer readings show a slow, steady increase, moving from 17,271 miles in September 2021 to 19,382 miles by May 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or significant gaps in testing that would suggest periods of neglect or undisclosed heavy use. While the MOT record is flawless, the low usage pattern introduces specific risks associated with vehicles that stand for long periods. A buyer should physically inspect the tyres for age-related cracking or flat spots, as rubber perishes regardless of tread depth. The brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion or pitting, and the brake fluid should be tested for moisture contamination. Attention should also be paid to the rubber suspension bushes and engine mounts, which can harden and crack over sixteen years of limited movement. A thorough check of the battery health and oil condition is advised to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from prolonged inactivity between its annual tests.
