Our Verdict
This 2011 Volvo V60 diesel is a sensible used buy with a largely clean MOT record and modest mileage for its age. The only caution is a failed MOT in September 2024 that was re-tested and passed the same day with no defects noted, suggesting an administrative or minor issue rather than a mechanical fault.
Given the clean MOT history with no recorded defects across five tests, focus your negotiation on service history, which is not provided in the data. A 2011 diesel Volvo should have evidence of timely oil changes, timing belt replacement (typically due around 10 years or 120,000 miles), and fuel filter servicing to protect the injection system.
As a 1984cc diesel registered before April 2017, this V60 will fall into a older tax band with a flat annual rate rather than the newer emissions-based charges; exact figures depend on DVLA records. Insurance group data is not provided, but a 2011 Volvo estate typically sits in a moderate group, and diesel fuel economy should be reasonable for a large estate if driven on longer journeys.
The MOT history shows a failure on 2024-09-05 at 66,236 miles with no defects recorded, followed by a pass on the same date — inspect the vehicle for any outstanding minor advisories not captured in the summary and confirm with the seller what triggered the initial fail. Beyond that, check the usual diesel weak points such as DPF condition, turbo operation, and suspension bush wear, though none were flagged in the MOT data.
The vehicle has covered 68,936 miles as of its most recent MOT in September 2025, which is below typical expectations for a 14-year-old diesel estate. MOT history shows passes in 2022, 2023, and 2025, with a same-day fail-and-pass in 2024 recording no defects. No aggregate reliability data is available for the V60, but the individual history here is reassuring.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Volvo V60, so assessment is limited to this vehicle's individual history.
