2014 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Petrol · GD14 FUJ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistently stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted in January 2026 at 79,906 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that the owner maintains the car to a high standard. This clean record across the last five tests suggests that critical mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable parameters without the failures that typically trigger MOT advisories. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,600 miles per annum. Between May 2022 at 54,573 miles and January 2026 at 79,906 miles, the car covered 25,333 miles at a steady rate. This regular usage is often preferable to long periods of standing, as it helps prevent brake calipers from seizing and avoids flat-spotting on tyres. The intervals between tests are generally annual, suggesting a proactive approach to keeping the vehicle in a legal and roadworthy state. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults or advisories, a buyer should focus on components susceptible to age-related degradation rather than mileage-related wear. Given the low mileage for the age, inspect the rubber components such as suspension bushes and bushings for cracking or dry rot, which can occur regardless of distance traveled. Check for early surface corrosion on the sills and exhaust lines, as the MOT test only flags structural integrity once it reaches a specific threshold of failure.
