2021 Volkswagen Polo United TSI 1.0L Petrol · HG70 HHW

The 2025‑10‑14 MOT at 38,944 miles confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy, with only a minor advisory concerning the near side front track‑rod end ball‑joint dust cover that had deteriorated but did not impede dirt ingress; the overall maintenance trend is stable, showing no major defects beyond this single advisory. Mileage has risen from 24,837 miles recorded on 13‑Feb‑2024 to 30,833 miles on 23‑Oct‑2024, then to 38,944 miles on 14‑Oct‑2025, indicating an average annual increase of roughly 8,100 miles, well above the typical 7,800‑mile benchmark for a five‑year‑old car and suggesting more intensive use in the later period. A buyer should therefore examine the front track‑rod end and its dust cover for play or corrosion, inspect suspension bushes, coil springs and steering components for looseness, check brake discs and calipers for binding or excessive wear, and look for structural rust on chassis rails and wheel arches; tyre condition and wiper blade wear should also be verified as routine consumable checks.
