2021 Volkswagen Polo Match EVO 1.0L Petrol · MA71 ADX

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 5 June 2026 at 31 856 miles, confirming it meets current roadworthiness standards. The maintenance trend shows improvement: the May 2025 test recorded front‑tyre wear near the legal limit and deteriorated windscreen wipers, while the latest test shows no recorded defects (aside from items removed from the driver’s view). The progression indicates the identified issues have been addressed. Mileage has accumulated steadily over the three‑year span. Between June 2024 (14 778 miles) and May 2025 (22 797 miles) the odometer rose 7 019 miles in roughly 11 months, and from May 2025 to June 2026 it added 9 059 miles in about 13 months. This yields an average annual mileage of 6 400–7 000 miles, which is typical for a five‑year‑old Polo. The test intervals are regular, with no significant gaps in the record. A buyer should inspect the front tyres for uneven wear and verify tread depth, as the 2025 test flagged wear close to the legal limit. The removal of items from the driver’s view at the latest test suggests a component was deemed non‑roadworthy; a thorough under‑vehicle check will confirm any replacements are fitted correctly. The deteriorated front windscreen wipers noted in 2025 need replacement, so the wiper blades and mechanism should be tested for proper operation. A walk‑around should also examine suspension bushes, brake disc condition, and exhaust emissions to ensure the clean MOT record reflects genuine mechanical health. The 2024 test recorded no structural defects, and the recent pass indicates the chassis and body remain sound. Nevertheless, the buyer should check for rust around wheel arches, panel gaps, and underbody corrosion. A professional inspection of the brake system, particularly the calipers and discs, will verify that the previously removed items have not left residual issues. Overall, the MOT history points to a well‑maintained car with only routine consumables requiring attention.
