2022 Polestar 2 Plus EV AWD Electricity · OY22 VCK

The most recent MOT test conducted on 06 February 2026 resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. Looking at the preceding year, the vehicle also passed without issue, indicating a stable and positive maintenance trend. The absence of recorded failures suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a sufficient standard to meet DVSA safety and environmental requirements, showing no immediate signs of structural or mechanical deterioration in the documented history. With 51,600 miles recorded over approximately four years, this Polestar 2 has averaged roughly 12,900 miles annually. This level of usage is higher than the typical UK average for a vehicle of this age, suggesting it has been used regularly, likely for commuting or long-distance travel. While higher mileage generally implies more wear on consumable components like tyres and suspension elements, the consistent usage is often beneficial for electric vehicles to prevent battery issues associated with long periods of inactivity. However, the buyer should be aware that the drivetrain and chassis components have undergone more significant stress cycles than a lower-mileage example. Since the MOT history is clean, the inspection should focus on age and mileage-related wear. During the test drive, pay close attention to the suspension by listening for any knocks, clunks, or unevenness when driving over bumps, as the higher mileage may have accelerated wear on suspension bushes or dampers. Check the tyres thoroughly for uneven tread wear, which can occur with all-wheel-drive systems, and inspect the sidewalls for any signs of perishing or cracking. Given the electric nature of the vehicle, verify the condition of the 12V auxiliary battery and ensure the main high-voltage battery health is documented through service records or diagnostic checks. Additionally, inspect the braking system for any signs of binding calipers or excessive disc corrosion, although the regular usage profile should mitigate this. It is also prudent to verify the service book for evidence of scheduled maintenance, such as cabin filter replacements and brake fluid changes, which are time-dependent rather than purely mileage-dependent. Finally, check the charging port for any physical damage or debris and ensure all software updates have been applied to maintain optimal vehicle performance and battery management.
