2006 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Petrol · LS56 SFO

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 7 May 2025 at 112,155 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed its tests on 19 April 2025 and 18 April 2024, the lack of recorded defects in the history suggests these failures were for minor issues quickly rectified before the retest. The mileage is low for a twenty year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,608 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between 12 April 2023 and 23 April 2024, where the odometer rose from 99,445 to 106,742 miles. Since that period, the mileage has remained relatively low, adding only 5,413 miles over the following thirteen months. The absence of advisories across several years of testing is unusual for a vehicle of this age. A buyer should specifically inspect the underbody for corrosion and check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these often degrade regardless of mileage. The low annual usage increases the risk of perished rubber components or seized brake calipers due to long periods of standing. Verify the service history to ensure the oil and filters were changed regularly despite the low mileage. Because the MOT record is exceptionally clean, a physical inspection of the brake discs for pitting and the tyres for age-related cracking is essential to confirm the vehicle has not been neglected while stationary.
