2017 Volvo XC90 2.0L Diesel · GG67 ARG

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 4 December 2025 at 146,302 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently cleared the test following initial failures. While the record shows failures in both 2023 and 2025, the subsequent passes indicate that identified defects were addressed promptly by the owner, suggesting a reactive approach to mechanical upkeep rather than neglect. The mileage profile is high for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 16,256 miles per year. Between the December 2023 test at 105,337 miles and the December 2024 test at 123,864 miles, the vehicle covered 18,527 miles in a single year. This rapid accumulation places significant strain on heavy-duty components typical of the Volvo XC90. The consistent annual testing interval suggests the vehicle is used regularly for long-distance travel rather than sitting for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry and braking system, given the high mileage and the nature of the XC90's weight. The MOT record does not list specific advisories, which is uncommon for a vehicle with this mileage; this may indicate that parts have been replaced recently or that minor wear is being overlooked by the tester. Check for signs of wear on the control arm bushings and coil springs, as high-mileage accelerates the degradation of rubber components. The structural integrity of the chassis also warrants a close look to ensure that the high usage rates have not led to undetected corrosion in the mounting points.
