About this car

This 2012 Volkswagen Polo Match Edition is advertised with 123,215 miles, approximately 53,100 above the typical mileage for its age. At £2,990, it is advertised £109 above our estimated market asking price of £2,881. We use UK dealer asking prices, including 8,411 Volkswagen Polo listings, and account for the car’s age, mileage and specification. Since we first spotted the advert 146 days ago, the asking price has dropped by £500. The recorded MOT expired on 25 June 2026, so ask the dealer whether it has been renewed. Our comparison with the latest MOT reading has not flagged a mileage discrepancy. It is for sale at MotoLux Cars in Nelson.
