2012 VOLVO XC602.4L Diesel

The 2012 Volvo XC60 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 31 January 2025 at 113,596 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior annual tests in January 2024 at 104,156 miles and January 2023 at 92,770 miles also passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults across the available record. Mileage progression sits at a typical rate for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,100 miles per year. The record moves from 76,872 miles at the October 2021 test to 92,770 miles by January 2023, then 104,156 in January 2024 and 113,596 in January 2025. A gap exists between the October 2021 and January 2023 entries spanning over fourteen months, yet annual testing resumed thereafter with consistent low annual accumulation. The history is sparse but clean, with no advisories logged on any pass. One anomaly requires scrutiny: the January 2023 record shows a failed test at 92,770 miles immediately followed by a pass on the same date with no defects listed. This suggests an administrative reversal or retest rather than a genuine fault, but the buyer should confirm with the DVLA the exact reason for the failure flag. No recurring suspension bushes, brake disc, caliper, exhaust emission, or structural corrosion issues appear in the data. Given the absence of recorded advisories, in-person inspection should still verify underside structural integrity for corrosion typical of a Volvo of this age, check suspension components for worn bushes or coil springs, and assess brake disc and pad condition. The clean MOT trail implies previous owners kept basic statutory compliance, though the sparse early record limits insight into consumable wear before 2021.
