2021 Polestar 2 Pilot Plus EV AWD Electric · OV21 BJJ

The vehicle currently faces a negative roadworthiness verdict, as the most recent MOT entry from 2026-05-02 failed at 91,928 miles, indicating that the vehicle has not met the standard safety requirements for its age class. This failure represents a significant deterioration in mechanical condition, suggesting that the owner has likely been neglecting routine maintenance and has not kept the vehicle in a safe condition since testing began in 2023. The maintenance trend is not stable or improving; rather, it is worsening in a pattern of failure. The vehicle has failed twice on the MOT, with the most recent test occurring in May 2026 at 91,928 miles. The gap between the most recent test and the first failure is approximately 18,000 miles, which is consistent with a vehicle that has been sitting in the UK for a considerable period. This prolonged absence has accelerated wear on critical components, particularly the suspension and drivetrain, which are the most common areas of failure in older models. Based on the history of two failures and the rapid mileage accumulation, a buyer must inspect the vehicle in person for a comprehensive assessment of structural integrity and mechanical health. The most critical areas to check are the suspension bushes, coil springs, and binding calipers, which are prone to corrosion and binding under heavy loads. Furthermore, the drivetrain components, including brake discs and exhaust emissions, must be examined for signs of rust, corrosion, or excessive wear that could indicate a more serious mechanical failure. The vehicle is not currently safe to drive, and the owner must be prepared for potential repairs ranging from minor suspension bushings to more extensive drivetrain replacements.
