Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus on verifying the service history to ensure the 1.0L engine has received regular oil changes. While the MOT record is clean of failures, you should check for evidence that the brake pads and discs noted as worn in August 2024 were replaced.
Inspect the tyres for even wear across the tread. The 2022 test noted inner tyre wear on both front tyres and perishing on the rears, which may indicate a previous need for wheel alignment or a period of low use.
The 999cc petrol engine is designed for urban efficiency, typically offering low fuel consumption and falling into a manageable insurance group. Annual road tax for this 2017 model is generally affordable based on its engine size and emissions.
Maintenance costs for the Polo are typically moderate, though buyers should budget for periodic replacements of consumables like brake pads and tyres, as seen in this vehicle's history.
Check the brake system thoroughly; although the 2024 advisories for worn discs and pads were noted, verify they have been addressed. Inspect all four tyres for tread depth and side-wall cracking, referencing the 2022 advisories regarding perishing and inner-edge wear.
Additionally, check the ball joints and ensure the engine management light is functioning correctly, as these are identified as top failure reasons across the wider Polo model aggregate data.
This black 2017 Volkswagen Polo with a 999cc petrol engine has recorded 55,711 miles. The MOT history shows five consecutive passes since 2022, with only minor wear-and-tear advisories regarding tyres and brakes. It presents as a stable example of a model that holds a 77.3% aggregate pass rate across a large dataset.
The Polo maintains a respectable 77.3% average MOT pass rate across over 670,000 analysed vehicles, indicating general reliability.
