2006 Volkswagen Polo 1.4L Petrol · PL06 HOJ

The 2025‑10‑10 MOT at 52,350 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness and a stable maintenance trend. Mileage has risen from 36,439 miles in October 2022 to 52,350 miles in October 2025, an increase of roughly 16,000 miles over three years, or about 5,300 miles per year, which remains modest for a 20‑year‑old car. The interval from September 2023 (38,250 miles) to October 2024 (44,989 miles) saw a 6,739‑mile jump, while the following year added another 7,361 miles, indicating periods of more active use. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, test the rear brake calipers for binding, examine the brake discs for scoring or corrosion, and look for any structural rust on the chassis or wheel arches, as these components are prone to deterioration on a vehicle of this age despite the clean MOT history.
