The VOLKSWAGEN POLO (2009-14) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.2 12V 60 EU5 MATCH is a small, three-door city hatchback with a manageable footprint and Volkswagen appeal. It sits among Britain’s popular superminis, competing with the Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Corsa. It suits buyers wanting straightforward everyday transport rather than a family car. The mycarcheck.com picture is based on 5,004 look-ups covering 2,046 VINs, a substantial sample. Recorded cars average 82,000 miles and around 6,000 miles a year; the average private-sale valuation is £3,700. Checks also show about 3.3 previous keepers on average, useful context when assessing an individual car’s history and condition. With its tidy design, light controls and modest 1.2-litre engine, this Polo is best for town trips, commuting and new drivers who value easy parking and relaxed motoring. The three-door layout is less convenient for rear passengers, but its cabin and accessible running costs make it a sensible supermini choice.
