2021 Polestar 2 EV AWD Electric · OE71 ACZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass during the most recent December 2025 inspection. At 70,274 miles, the tester recorded no defects or advisories, indicating that the mechanical and structural components met the minimum safety standards. This represents an improvement from the previous year, where a minor glass-related defect was noted and subsequently rectified. The mileage accumulation is significant for a five-year-old electric vehicle, averaging 14,000 miles per annum. Between the December 2024 test and December 2025 test, the car covered 11,634 miles in just twelve months. This consistent usage suggests regular motorway-style driving rather than long periods of inactivity. While high mileage typically accelerates the wear of consumables, the lack of recorded advisories in the history suggests the previous owners have remained proactive with basic maintenance requirements. Given the high mileage, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on the lower suspension assembly and braking system. At 70,000 miles, components such as wishbone arm bushes, control arm ball, and coil springs often show signs of premature fatigue or wear. Check for evidence of binding calipers or uneven pad wear, as the weight of heavy EVs places substantial stress on the braking hardware. Additionally, inspect the underbody for any road-related damage or early corrosion that may not have triggered an MOT failure but could require future attention.
