How we estimate prices and check cars

Price

Far below the going rate: £2,678 (25%) under the AskCar estimate of £10,377. Worth asking the dealer why.

The AskCar estimate is our expected asking price for this car. It uses UK dealer asking prices, accounting for make, model, trim, version, age, mileage, fuel, gearbox, body type, driven wheels, engine size and power. It is an advertised price, not a confirmed sale price.

It draws on 8,299 priced Volkswagen Polo adverts across different ages and specifications, as of 4 November 2026.

A 2016 Volkswagen Polo with the 1.2 petrol engine is typically advertised at £7,900: the median of the 211 for sale on AskCar, as of 4 November 2026.

Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 4 November 2026: valid until 12 May 2027.

It failed its MOT on 5 May 2026 (parking brake efficiency below requirements; offside parking brake inoperative on one side; offside front lower suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn inner back) and passed later the same day.

Advisories at the latest test: front service brake fluctuating, but not excessively.

Mileage at that test: 75,878 miles. The advert says 10,000 miles, fewer than the MOT record, so ask the dealer which is right.
