2022 Polestar 2 Plus EV AWD Electric · OV22 ACO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test in March 2026, but the maintenance trend reveals a concerning pattern of neglected tyre management. While the car passed its most recent inspection at 50,319 miles, the tester flagged the offside front tyre as being near the legal limit with edge wear. This follows a failure in March 2025 where multiple tyres were rejected due to structural damage and uneven wear, indicating that the owner has consistently deferred addressing consumable faults until they reached critical levels. At 50,319 miles over approximately four years, this vehicle has averaged roughly 12,500 miles per year, which sits above the typical average for a modern electric vehicle. The data shows a significant of 12,685 miles accumulated between the March 2025 and March 2026 tests, suggesting high-frequency motorway use. This rapid mileage accumulation places accelerated stress on the complex AWD drivetrain and suspension components, especially when considered alongside the recurring issues with uneven tyre wear noted in the DVSA records. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension geometry and wheel alignment. The repeated reports of uneven wear on the inner edges of the offside rear and front tyres across both 2025 and 2026 suggest worn control arm bushings, faulty struts, or incorrect camber settings. You should also check for further sidewall damage or improperly aged tyres, as the previous failure for a structural bulge indicates a history of poor structural integrity in the rubber set.
