VOLVO XC602015 · 2.4L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests. Although the most recent test on 1 December 2025 at 84,415 miles initially resulted in a failure, the car passed the retest that same day with no recorded defects. This suggests a minor, easily rectified issue was addressed immediately upon discovery rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The record remains clean across the previous three annual inspections. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. Between the December 2022 test at 62,459 miles and the December 2024 test at 77,670 miles, the car covered roughly 15,000 miles, indicating regular and predictable use. This steady usage often reduces the risk of dry rot or seizing associated with long periods of standing, though it means components like suspension bushings and brake components are reaching their natural age-related wear cycles. Given that the MOT history shows no recurring faults or structural advisories, a physical inspection should focus on the standard wear items for a Volvo XC60 of this age. A buyer should inspect the front wish arms and rear coil springs for fatigue, as these are common points of failure on this chassis. Check the brake discs for uneven wear or thinning, and verify that the rubber boots are not cracking despite the MOT record not flagging them. The lack of historical corrosion notes suggests the vehicle has likely been well-protected from the elements.
