VOLVO XC90 SE D5 AWD AUTO2014 · 2.4L Diesel

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2025-11-12 at 114,621 miles, but a prior test on 2025-11-05 at 114,495 miles resulted in a failure with no defects recorded. This suggests an anomaly, potentially a procedural error or an unrecorded issue. Subsequent tests from 2022 to 2024 show consistent passing results with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend until the recent discrepancy. The absence of recorded faults in the latest pass implies no critical failures, though the failed test raises questions about the reliability of the MOT process in this instance. The vehicle’s mileage of 114,621 miles over 12 years aligns with an average of 9,552 miles annually, reflecting typical usage for its age. The MOT history shows regular testing intervals, with the longest gap between 2024-12-13 (106,986 miles) and 2025-11-05 (114,495 miles), covering 7,509 miles. This suggests consistent monitoring, though the proximity of the failed and subsequent passed tests (just seven days apart) is unusual. No significant mileage spikes or extended inactivity periods are evident, supporting the assumption of regular use without extreme wear. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these components often degrade over time without immediate MOT failures. The exhaust system and emissions controls should also be checked, given the potential for minor leaks or sensor issues. While no structural corrosion or brake-related defects were recorded, the recent failed test—despite no stated faults—warrants scrutiny of the vehicle’s electrical systems and MOT compliance. Overall, the records suggest a well-maintained vehicle, but the unresolved failure highlights the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection.
