2008 Volkswagen Polo 1.2L Petrol · ST58 PPF

The 2023‑12‑02 MOT at 84,669 miles passed with no defects, confirming that the vehicle is presently roadworthy and that the maintenance record remains stable, having passed the preceding November 2023 test after a brief failure that was remedied without recorded defects. At 18 years old, the recorded mileage of 84,669 equates to roughly 4,700 miles per year, yet the history shows a more rapid increase: from 68,369 miles in November 2021 to 84,669 miles by December 2023, a gain of 16,300 miles in just over two years, or about 8,150 miles annually, with a notable jump of 7,043 miles in five days between the 2022‑11‑10 and 2022‑11‑15 tests, indicating either intensive use or possible odometer irregularity. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or cracking, test the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, examine the chassis and wheel arches for rust that could compromise structural integrity, verify the condition of the exhaust system and emissions output, and check tyre tread depth and brake pad thickness, as these items are prone to deterioration on a vehicle of this age despite the clean MOT history.
