Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the mileage
The most critical area for negotiation and inspection is the vehicle's underside. The MOT history specifically flags corrosion on brake hoses, brake pipes, and suspension components. You should verify whether these items were replaced or merely treated, as corrosion in these areas can lead to costly repairs or safety issues.
Given the very low annual mileage, check the service history for evidence of regular oil changes. Cars that sit for long periods can develop perished seals or fuel system deposits. Ensure that the low mileage is genuine and supported by the service book stamps.
Equipped with a 1.2L petrol engine, this Fox is designed for low-cost urban motoring. It will likely fall into a low insurance group and a modest road tax bracket, making it an economical choice for city use.
While routine servicing for the 1.2L engine is generally affordable, the current MOT advisories suggest that immediate spending may be required to address the corrosion on the suspension and steering components to prevent future failures.
Prioritise a thorough inspection of the undercarriage. Specifically, look for the corrosion mentioned in the May 2026 MOT regarding the front and rear suspension and steering components. Reference the May 2024 record and check the condition of the brake pipe ferrules and shock absorber casings for oil misting or heavy rust.
Additionally, test the windscreen washer system to ensure the failure recorded in May 2025 has been permanently resolved and that there are no leaks in the washer plumbing.
This silver 2010 Volkswagen Fox has covered just 40,380 miles, which is significantly below average for its age. However, MOT records from 2024 and 2026 highlight persistent corrosion affecting the brake pipes, shock absorbers, and steering components. It is a rare, low-mileage example, but the underbody condition is a primary concern.
Aggregate MOT data for the Volkswagen Fox is unavailable, but the model is typically regarded as a simple, utilitarian city car.
