2021 Volkswagen Polo 1.0L Petrol · KP71 TMX

This 2021 Volkswagen Polo has passed its last two MOT tests without any defects recorded. The most recent test on 26 August 2025 showed no issues, and the previous test from September 2024 was equally clean. From a statutory safety and emissions standpoint, the vehicle presents no red flags. The recorded mileage of 24,129 miles is notably low for a five-year-old car. At roughly 4,826 miles per year, this suggests either very light use or extended periods when the vehicle was not in regular service. Low mileage can be positive for wear on drivetrain, suspension, and braking components, but it also carries its own risks. A car that sits for long stretches may develop issues with fuel system components, battery condition, fluid degradation, and corrosion in areas normally kept dry by regular use. The interval between the two recorded MOT tests is approximately eleven months, with mileage increasing by only 4,232 miles in that span. This pattern confirms the low annual mileage and suggests the vehicle continues to be driven sparingly. There is no evidence of mechanical degradation or a worsening trend; the clean MOT record indicates the vehicle has remained in acceptable condition throughout the tested period.
