2010 Volvo XC90 2.4L Diesel · AV60 AEP

This Volvo XC90 presents an exceptionally stable maintenance profile with a consistent record of roadworthiness. The most recent MOT on 5 November 2025 at 114,712 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories. This follows a five-year trend of first-time passes without a single recorded fault, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a vehicle of this age. Between the January 2021 test at 91,393 miles and the November 2025 test at 114,712 miles, the car covered 23,319 miles over nearly five years. This averages roughly 4,600 miles per year in the recent period, which is lower than the overall lifetime average of 7,170 miles per year. Such a pattern indicates the vehicle has not suffered from excessive heavy-duty use or prolonged periods of stagnation. While the MOT history is remarkably clean, the absence of advisories over five years is unusual for a 16-year-old luxury SUV. A buyer should still manually inspect the chassis and suspension components for corrosion, as MOT testers often overlook minor surface rust that does not yet compromise structural integrity. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these typically degrade regardless of the MOT outcome. Verify the service history for evidence of timing belt and water pump replacements. The MOT record confirms the vehicle is legally roadworthy, but it does not track internal engine health or transmission fluid changes. Focus your physical inspection on the brake discs for lip wear and the tyres for age-related cracking, as these consumables may be nearing the end of their life despite passing recent inspections.
