2011 Volkswagen Polo 1.4L Petrol · GU11 ENP

The vehicle remains roadworthy. The most recent MOT on 19 February 2026 at 54,561 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the preceding duplicate entry on the same date also shows no faults. The lack of any recorded issues across all tests indicates a stable maintenance trend. Mileage figures are low for a 15‑year‑old car. The average annual mileage is roughly 3,637 miles, with a modest increase of 589 miles between the 4 March 2024 test (48,078 miles) and the 24 February 2025 test (48,667 miles). The jump to 54,561 miles by 19 February 2026 represents a 5,894‑mile run over twelve months, a higher but still manageable figure. No rapid spikes or gaps suggest any sudden heavy usage. When inspecting the car personally, focus on the usual consumables and wear‑prone components: tyres, brake pads and discs, suspension bushings, coil springs, steering linkages, and the exhaust system. Verify that the vehicle has a clean chassis free of corrosion, that the battery and electrical connections are sound, and that the engine oil and coolant levels reflect regular servicing. While the MOT record shows no faults, a thorough visual and functional check of these items will confirm that the car has been maintained consistently and that no hidden defects have arisen since the last test.
