2022 Polestar 2 Plus EV FWD Electricity · OV72 AFO

The vehicle presents a clean bill of health from its most recent MOT conducted on 20 August 2025 at 15,608 miles, where it passed with zero defects or advisories recorded. This single data point indicates a stable and well-maintained condition at the time of testing, with no recurring mechanical or structural trends to flag. For a 2022 Polestar 2, the maintenance history is exceptionally sparse in the best possible sense, showing no pattern of deterioration or neglect. The mileage profile tells an interesting story. At just 15,608 miles over roughly four years of ownership, the annual average sits at approximately 3,902 miles per year, well below the typical UK average. The MOT record confirms the odometer reading remained static between the test date and the current recorded mileage, suggesting the vehicle has seen very limited use in the past ten months. Low annual mileage can be a double-edged sword. While it reduces wear on consumables like brake pads and tyres, prolonged periods of inactivity can cause its own problems, including flat-spotted tyres, seized brake calipers, and battery health degradation in an EV powertrain. Given the absence of any flagged defects, a prospective buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on areas that low-mileage EVs commonly suffer. Check the tyre sidewalls for date codes and signs of perishing, as original factory rubber may be approaching its age-related replacement window regardless of remaining tread depth. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion, a frequent issue on EVs where regenerative braking reduces mechanical disc use. Examine the suspension bushes and dust covers for perishing, and verify that the high-voltage battery state of health aligns with expectations for a vehicle of this age and mileage. The Polestar 2's structural integrity and battery enclosure should be visually checked for any signs of corrosion or impact damage underneath. The clean MOT record provides solid reassurance, but it represents a single snapshot. A pre-purchase inspection by a specialist familiar with the Polestar 2 platform remains the most reliable way to confirm that this lightly used example has not developed any latent issues from prolonged standing or infrequent operation.
