2012 VOLVO XC602.4L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, maintaining a clean record following a brief mechanical setback. The most recent inspection conducted in October 2025 at 206,376 miles resulted in no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. This follows two years of clean passes in 2024 and 2023, suggesting that the current owner is proactive in addressing mechanical issues before they escalate into test failures. The mileage profile reflects high-intensity usage for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 14,700 miles per annum. Between September 2022 and October 2025, the car covered 51,009 miles, representing an accelerated rate of over 17,000 miles per year. This rapid accumulation places significant strain on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system. The single failure in September 2023 at 170,020 miles, followed by a pass just four days later, indicates a minor or consumable fault that was rectified immediately. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear components typical of high-mileage SUVs. Given the 206,000-mile mark, the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers should be checked for perished rubber or fluid leaks. The braking system requires a thorough check for thin discs and binding calipers, as high annual mileage often accelerates wear on these parts. While the MOT history is currently clean, the structural integrity of the chassis should be verified for corrosion to ensure that the heavy use has not compromised the frame mounting points.
