Our Verdict

Proceed with confidence, but verify rece

When inspecting this specific vehicle, focus on the rear suspension. The 2023 MOT recorded light oil misting on both nearside and offside rear shock absorbers; while the 2024 and 2025 tests showed no defects, it is worth confirming if these components were replaced or if the misting was resolved.

As this is a 2.0L petrol variant, ensure you check the service history for oil change intervals, which are critical for these turbocharged engines. Given the mileage is approaching the 100,000-mile mark, ask the seller for evidence of any major component replacements, such as timing belts or water pumps, if applicable to this specific engine code.

As a large 2.0L petrol SUV, running costs will be higher than a standard hatchback. You should expect moderate to high fuel consumption depending on load and driving style. Tax and insurance groups for the XC90 are typically mid-to-high, reflecting its size and engine capacity.

Maintenance costs for this model can be significant due to the complexity of the chassis and the premium parts required. Expect typical servicing costs to be higher than average for a vehicle of this age, particularly if addressing suspension or braking components.

Specifically check the rear shock absorbers. The 2023 MOT record noted light oil misting on both rear units, and while subsequent tests passed without defects, a physical inspection for leaks or uneven damping is prudent.

Additionally, check the accessibility and condition of the third-row seatbelts. The 2023 MOT noted these could not be checked due to accessibility; ensure they are functional and can be easily reached during your viewing to avoid similar issues during a future MOT.

This 2016 black Volvo XC90 with the 2.0L petrol engine has covered 91,344 miles as of its last MOT in May 2026. The vehicle shows a consistent pattern of annual testing, with the most recent three tests recording no defects. While it has covered more than the model average annual mileage, the recent inspection results are stable.

Aggregate data for this model shows an 80.2% MOT pass rate, with common failure points including headlamps and parking brake efficiency.
