2014 Volvo V40 2.0L Diesel · KU14 AAO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive servicing regarding consumables. In the most recent test in January 2026 at 115,906 miles, the car passed with an offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. This follows a similar advisory from January 2025 at 104,533 miles regarding the nearside front inner tyre, suggesting a persistent alignment or suspension geometry issue that remains unaddressed. At 115,906 miles over approximately twelve years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 9,659 miles per year, which is consistent with typical usage for a hatchback of this age. The mileage data shows steady annual progression, with approximately 12,000 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 11,400 miles between 2025 and 2026. This consistent use means the vehicle has not suffered long periods of stagnation which can often degrade rubber components. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension and braking system due to recurring faults noted in the record. The 2024 test at 94,052 miles flagged thin pads on both axes and worn front discs, while the 2022 test at 71,907 miles noted worn rear pads and a drum. The recurring inner-edge wear on multiple tyres across 2022, 2025, and 2026 strongly indicates worn control arm bushes or incorrect camber/toe settings that require professional rectification to prevent further premature tyre failure.
