2013 Volkswagen Polo 1.4L Petrol · JC63 DAY

The Volkswagen Polo presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 1 December 2025 at 74,042 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, showing clean passes once the two same-day failure anomalies are set aside. Those failures on 1 December 2025 and 30 December 2024 carried no listed defects, which points to administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. The recorded mileage sits at 74,042 miles against a 2013 build, averaging roughly 5,696 miles per year. The car covered 7,429 miles between the February 2024 test at 57,326 miles and the December 2024 test at 64,755 miles, then added 9,287 miles by December 2025. That is modest annual use for its age and suggests lighter running, though the identical-date fail and pass pairs in both 2024 and 2025 mean the owner likely left little gap between correction and retest. No advisories or defects appear across any test in the record, so the MOT data shows no recurring wear on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion. A clean sheet at this age is unusual but not implausible for a low-mileage vehicle. The absence of flagged items means the history implies basic upkeep was kept current by the previous keeper. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody structural integrity and brake caliper operation, as MOT silence does not confirm component condition between tests. Verify the reason for the two zero-defect failures with DVSA, since repeated same-day fail-pass entries without faults warrant clarification before purchase.
