2017 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Petrol · KE17 AFK

This vehicle presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 10 October 2025 at 47,453 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean tests dating back to 2022, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has experienced very little mechanical stress. The mileage is notably low for a nine year old car, averaging roughly 5,273 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady, increasing by 3,093 miles between October 2023 and October 2024, and 4,194 miles between October 2024 and October 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest undisclosed commercial use or long periods of stagnation. The record is exceptionally clean, with no advisories for brake wear, suspension bushes, or corrosion across five years of testing. A failure on 18 October 2024 was rectified the following day at the same mileage, though the record does not specify the fault. Given the lack of recurring mechanical issues, the history implies a diligent approach to preventative maintenance by the previous owner. A physical inspection should focus on components that degrade regardless of mileage. The buyer should check the condition of the tyre rubber for age-related cracking and verify the brake fluid condition, as low-use vehicles often require fluid changes based on time rather than distance. Checking for any signs of perished rubber seals or battery health is advised given the low annual mileage.
