2014 Volvo V40 1.6L Diesel · KV14 ABZ

The current roadworthiness status of this Volvo V40 is excellent, characterized by a stable and clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT conducted on 25 April 2025 at 71,515 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This outcome follows a consistent pattern of fault-free testing over the last three years, suggesting that the vehicle has been subjected to diligent upkeep and regular servicing by its previous keepers. The vehicle displays a low-mileage profile, averaging approximately 5,960 miles per annum over its twelve-year lifespan. Accumulation has remained steady, with roughly 2,400 miles added between the April 2024 and April 2025 tests. The brief failure recorded on 17 February 2022 at 63,836 miles appears to be a clerical or administrative anomaly, as the vehicle passed the same inspection on the same day with no recorded defects. There are no indications of long-term storage or periods of neglect within the provided data. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components that typically degrade due to age rather than high mileage. While the MOT history is clean, the rubber suspension bushes, engine mounts, and cooling system hoses will be reaching a stage where natural perishing occurs. Check the brake discs for signs of surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from restricted use which prevents the discs from self-cleaning during regular operation. Verify the condition of the tyres for age-related cracking in the sidewalls, even if the tread depth remains legal.
