Description

Selling my daughters fully HPI clear Volkswagen Polo 1.2 petrol, it was her first car which we bought in August 2025 for her first year in university, and is only selling due to moving into a student house in which has no parking.

It is probably the best condition 2013 Volkswagen Polo you will find - it is virtually immaculate apart from some very very minor age related marks.

It is perfect for a first time driver as it’s the cheapest Volkswagen Polo to insure, especially for a young driver being the 1.2 petrol model which is in insurance group 4. Perfect for a first time driver, delivery driver or just a cheap runaround as it’s very cheap to insure and tax and will return 55-60mpg.

It starts and drives perfectly with no warning lights on the dash or knocks or bangs when driving.

It benefits from 9 Months MOT with no advisories (expiry 5th July 2027) and it has only been driven less than 2,000 miles since the MOT.

Any inspection is welcome and I encourage a test drive to see for yourself how good this car really is.

Overall the car can be described as virtual immaculate - the bodywork of the car is in great condition and the interior is in immaculate condition with no rips, years, stains or wear and is very clean.

To summarise:

9 Months MOT

HPI clear (no accidents / no cat car / no finance)

Starts and drives perfectly with no warning lights or knocks or bangs

Smooth gear box, excellent clutch and a perfect quiet engine

Bodywork is in fantastic condition with just very very minor age related marks (it is 13 years old after all)

The interior is immaculate with no signs of wear or tear


One of the cheapest cars to run and insure for first time drivers being the bulletproof 1.2 petrol engine


A very clean and honest car which drives exactly as you would expect and must be seen and driven to be fully appreciated.

This would make an ideal first car or a perfect commuter car with very low insurance group, averaging 60 and is ULEZ compliant.

A perfect first car and priced very fairly at £3,000
