2016 Volkswagen Polo 1.4L Petrol · PL65 VLU

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT on October 6, 2025, at 70,406 miles. The maintenance trend appears reactive rather than proactive, as the car consistently requires repairs only after failing inspections. While the most recent test showed minor consumable-related failures such as low tread depth on both front tyres and insufficient washer fluid, these were rectified immediately to achieve a clean pass. This pattern suggests the owner tends to address essential safety items only when compelled by the testing process. At 70,406 miles, the Polo has averaged approximately 7,000 miles per year over its ten-year life, which aligns with typical domestic usage patterns. The data shows steady mileage intervals, with a 7,105-mile gap between October 2024 and October 2025, and another 11,016 miles between September 2023 and October 2024. This consistent usage indicates the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of തന്നെ, which can often lead to premature degradation of rubber components and fluid seals. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension and braking system, as the history indicates recurring issues in these areas. The tester flagged excessive play in the offside front track rod end at 63,301 miles and thin brake pads during the same visit. Furthermore, 2023 records noted pitting and corrosion on the offside rear brake disc at 52,385 miles. Given these entries, a physical check of the remaining brake life, disc thickness, and the condition of the steering linkage is necessary to ensure that previous repairs were durable and that no further wear is developing.
