VOLVO XC602013 · 2.4L DIESEL

The most recent MOT was passed in December 2019 at 41,247 miles, with a single advisory note for thin rear brake pads. Given that today is June 2026, this MOT is nearly seven years out of date. This is the most critical point in the vehicle's history; a car of this age requires an annual test, and the lack of any subsequent MOT records means its legal and safety condition over the last seven years is completely unknown. You must assume the vehicle has not been used on the road legally during this time. Looking at the available history, the only recurring issue was brake-related, specifically concerning the rear pads in 2019. The 2018 test showed a puncture from a nail, which is a random event rather than a mechanical pattern. Prior to that, the vehicle had two consecutive clean passes. Based solely on the recorded data, the condition trend does not show a clear worsening; it was stable with only a minor wear item noted on its last appearance. The recorded mileage of 41,247 miles is very low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging around 3,173 miles per year. This low annual average is ambiguous and could point to two different scenarios: either the car has lived a genuinely light life with mostly short, gentle journeys, or it has spent significant periods parked up and unused.
