2021 Volkswagen Polo Match EVO 1.0L Petrol · PK71 EXS

The most recent MOT on 19 September 2025 at 11,402 miles recorded a Pass with no defects, confirming the vehicle remains roadworthy. With two consecutive passes and no recorded faults, the maintenance trend appears stable rather than deteriorating. The mileage log shows 8,258 miles at the 20 September 2024 test and 11,402 miles a year later, an increase of roughly 3,100 miles over twelve months. This equates to about 260 miles per month, far below the typical 2,000‑2,500 miles per year for a five‑year‑old Polo. The low accumulation suggests light usage or periods of inactivity, and the absence of any rapid spikes indicates no recent high‑stress driving. A prospective buyer should still examine consumable wear despite the clean record. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, as low mileage does not guarantee adequate tread. Verify brake pad thickness and disc surface for any hidden scoring, and feel for binding calipers or uneven pedal feel. Check suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of corrosion or fatigue, particularly at the front lower arms and rear trailing links. A visual survey of the under‑carriage for rust, exhaust system integrity, and any structural dents will confirm that age‑related deterioration has not been masked by the modest mileage.
