2013 Volvo V60 2.4L Electric diesel · ND13 AEJ

The vehicle is currently in a declining state of maintenance, with the most recent MOT on 14 June 2024 showing a significant increase in mechanical advisories. While it passed, the tester flagged pitting and scoring across all four brake discs and unbonding of the trailing arm forward bushes on both the nearside and offside rear suspension. A damaged windscreen and a hybrid system service warning further indicate a lapse in preventative care. The mileage is consistent with the age of the car, averaging roughly 9,688 miles per year. The record shows a steady accumulation of distance, moving from 66,496 miles in June 2016 to 125,950 miles by June 2024. There is a notable gap in testing between March 2021 and June 2024, suggesting the vehicle may have been used less frequently or missed a scheduled annual test during this period. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system and rear suspension. The 2024 report suggests the brake discs are nearing the end of their usable life across all four corners. The unbonding of the rear suspension bushes is a progressive issue that will eventually lead to excessive movement and poor handling if not addressed. The history also reveals a pattern of neglecting tyres. The vehicle failed in June 2016 due to a cut tyre and three others worn to the legal limit, and it again flagged inner edge wear in February 2020 at 109,973 miles. This recurring trend suggests potential alignment issues or a general lack of attention to consumable wear. The hybrid system service alert from the 2024 test requires immediate verification via a diagnostic scan to ensure the drivetrain is functioning correctly.
