2010 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Petrol · GY60 LRV

The December 2025 MOT at 120,571 miles passed without any defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record is stable. All five annual tests from November 2021 through December 2025 show no failures or advisories, indicating consistent compliance with DVSA standards. The mileage increased by roughly 9,000 miles each year, rising from 86,654 miles in November 2021 to 120,571 miles in December 2025, a pattern that aligns with the car’s 16‑year age and suggests regular use rather than prolonged storage. The interval between the 2021 and 2022 tests is one year, and the steady rise points to continuous operation without significant periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, check that the brake discs and calipers show no binding or excessive scoring, and examine the chassis for structural rust or corrosion around the wheel arches and underbody. The exhaust system appears to have passed emission tests, but a visual assessment of the catalytic converter and pipework is advisable, and tyre tread depth and sidewall condition must be measured before purchase.
