2021 Polestar 2 EV FWD Electricity · OV71 UGH

The Polestar 2 presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT test on 4 November 2025 at 71,452 miles passing without any recorded defects. A clean pass on the previous test dated 7 November 2024 at 55,128 miles confirms a consistent absence of mechanical or structural failures. This indicates the vehicle has met the required safety and emissions standards across its recent history, showing no worsening trends or recurring faults. The mileage accumulation is notably high for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 14,290 miles annually. Between the 2024 and 2025 tests, the odometer advanced by 16,324 miles over a twelve-month period, reflecting sustained, intensive daily use rather than long periods of inactivity. Such elevated mileage accelerates the wear rate on consumables and suspension components, demanding closer scrutiny of parts that typically degrade with distance rather than age. Despite the clean MOT records, the high mileage warrants a thorough physical inspection of wear-prone components. Buyers should examine the condition of the tyres for uneven wear patterns, which could indicate misaligned tracking or worn suspension bushes. The braking system requires careful evaluation; while regenerative braking reduces reliance on friction brakes, infrequent use can lead to surface corrosion on discs or binding calipers. Inspect the coil springs and shock absorbers for signs of fatigue or oil leakage, as high mileage places continuous stress on the suspension. Checking the structural integrity of the underbody and subframes for corrosion remains prudent, given the vehicle's age and the intensive use it has endured.
