2005 Volvo XC90 2.4L Diesel · DEZ 2038

The most recent MOT test on 26 July 2022 shows the vehicle passed, though the record indicates several areas of concern rather than a clean bill of health. The maintenance trend appears unstable due to the presence of multiple advisories covering different mechanical and safety systems. These issues include an oil leak, damaged seat belt webbing, and a near-side rear tyre worn close to the legal limit. The vehicle has covered 200,797 miles over its 21-year lifespan, averaging approximately 9,562 miles per year. This represents a consistent usage pattern typical for a vehicle of this age. However, the provided MOT history is sparse, with no recorded tests between the 2022 inspection and the current date of 29 August 2026. This four-year gap in documented testing means the current mechanical state of the vehicle is unverified by official records. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the engine bay to monitor the oil leak flagged in the 2022 test. It is necessary to check if this leak has worsened or affected other components. The near-side rear tyre and the condition of all other tyres should be assessed against legal tread depth requirements. The offside front windscreen damage, while noted as a minor issue in 2022, requires checking for any new cracks or chips that could compromise structural integrity. The damaged offside front seat belt webbing is a specific safety advisory that needs immediate attention to ensure it meets legal standards. Given the age and mileage, a detailed inspection of the suspension bushes, brake discs, and any signs of chassis corrosion is advisable, as these elements are not explicitly detailed in the single available MOT entry. buying_score: 55 risk_level: Medium.
