2021 Volvo XC40 1.5L Petrol · TU11 AMY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in December 2025 at 23,696 miles. The maintenance trend shows a shift from reactive repairs in the previous year to a more stable state. While the 2025 test noted a minor obstruction due to a nearside rear child seat preventing a full inspection of the adult seat belt, the lack of new mechanical failures suggests the vehicle is currently in a functional condition. At 23,696 miles over five years, the car has averaged approximately 4,740 miles per year. This is significantly lower than the national average, typically indicating reduced wear on the engine and heavy suspension components. The mileage gap between the December 2024 test at 21,103 miles and the December 2025 test shows consistent, light usage, though low mileage can sometimes lead to brake disc surface corrosion or flat spots on tyres if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus on the braking system and front assembly during a physical inspection. The December 2024 test flagged thin rear brake pads and noted both front tyres were worn to the legal limit with signs of edge wear. These issues often point to alignment problems or neglected consumable maintenance. It is essential that the rear brake pads have been replaced and that the current front tyres do not exhibit uneven wear, as the previous records suggest a potential geometry issue with the front suspension.
