MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Volvo Xc90 (KT05 XBF) between February 2008 and July 2021.

The record contains 15 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 05 July 2021 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (22 issues), Brakes (21 issues), Lighting (12 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Bodywork (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 41 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Rear fog lamp not working (4.5.1 (a) (ii))”.
