How to buy a used Polestar 2 — the inspection checklist
The same three steps work for every used car purchase but they matter more on a Polestar 2 because the specific faults above can be expensive if missed:
- Run the reg through the free DVLA reg check — confirms make, model, colour, MOT and tax status. If anything doesn't match the listing, walk away before you go to view.
- Pull the full MOT history — look for repeated advisories on the systems flagged in the common faults above. A car that's had four MOTs all flagging the same wear point hasn't had that wear point fixed.
- Use our pre-purchase inspection guide on the day — covers the bodywork, electrical, mechanical and paperwork checks that catch most problems.
