2021 Volkswagen Polo Match TSI 1.0L Petrol · SM21 KFR

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 16 January 2026 at 54,944 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean bills of health, indicating the car has been kept in a roadworthy condition without the common degradation often seen in five year old hatchbacks. The mileage accumulation shows a significant increase in the final year of the record. Between 18 January 2025 and 16 January 2026, the vehicle covered 17,175 miles, which is considerably higher than the 7,003 miles added between May 2024 and January 2025. While the overall average of roughly 11,000 miles per year is typical for this model, the recent surge in usage suggests a change in the owner's driving habits or a period of heavy commuting. The absence of any recorded advisories across three tests is rare and suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance. There are no recurring flags for suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or tyre tread wear, which typically appear as a vehicle approaches 50,000 miles. The record implies the previous owner addressed wear and tear items before they reached a failure threshold. A physical inspection should focus on consumables that do not always trigger MOT failures but are subject to wear during high-mileage periods. Check the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads, as the recent 17,000 mile stint may have depleted them. Verify the service history to ensure the oil change intervals were maintained despite the increased mileage in the last twelve months.
