2018 Volvo V90 2.0L Diesel · AB51 HBB

The Volvo V90 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 15 July 2025 at 80,911 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior successful tests also closed with clean sheets. The single failure in the record did not involve any recorded mechanical defect. Annual mileage averages around 10,114 miles against an eight-year lifespan, which is typical for the vehicle's age. The records show steady accumulation: 43,642 miles at the June 2022 test, 55,155 miles at the May 2023 failure, 55,158 miles the next day on pass, 65,127 miles in June 2024, and 80,911 miles by July 2025. The only anomaly is the 24 May 2023 failure at 55,155 miles followed by a pass on 25 May 2023 at 55,158 miles with no defects listed, suggesting an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a repair cycle. The DVSA data flags no recurring faults across suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of underside structural integrity and brake caliper operation, as MOT passes with no advisories do not measure remaining tyre depth or consumable wear margins. Given the clean test history and ordinary mileage, the evidence implies the previous keeper maintained statutory testing discipline. No pattern of skipped upkeep or worsening mechanical condition emerges from the record.
