Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus on the service history to ensure the 1969cc diesel engine has been maintained despite the low annual mileage, as infrequent long runs can sometimes impact diesel particulate filters (DPF). Verify that oil changes have been performed at regular intervals regardless of the low mileage.
Check the current condition of the tyres; while the 2026 MOT was clean, the 2022 record highlighted wear on both front tyres, so confirming the brand and age of the current set is advisable.
As a 2.0L diesel, this XC60 is designed for efficiency over longer distances, though its size and engine capacity place it in a corresponding tax and insurance bracket. Maintenance costs for Volvo's premium components are typically higher than budget brands, but the low mileage may reduce immediate wear-and-tear expenses.
Annual costs will include diesel fuel, road tax, and insurance, alongside routine servicing to keep the diesel engine in order. For a vehicle of this specification, these costs are moderate for the premium SUV segment.
While the MOT history is clean, inspect the suspension components—specifically the coil springs—as these are identified as a top failure reason in the aggregate data for this model. Check the black paintwork for any signs of fading or scratches that may have occurred during its time on the road.
Review the tyre treads carefully. Although the 2026 test recorded no defects, the 2022 advisories for both nearside and offside front tyres indicate a pattern of front-end wear that should be monitored.
This 2017 black Volvo XC60 diesel has covered 38,107 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average. Its MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passes, with only minor tyre advisories noted in 2022 and no defects recorded in the most recent 2026 test. Based on the available data, it presents a stable value proposition.
The XC60 maintains a respectable average MOT pass rate of 84.6% across 94,049 analysed vehicles.
