2018 Volvo S60 2.0L Petrol · AE18 UJR

This 2018 Volvo S60 presents with a very low mileage of 34,585, averaging just over 4,300 miles per year. While this suggests the vehicle has seen light usage, the consistent MOT history indicates a recurring issue with tyre condition that requires your immediate attention. The vehicle’s MOT record shows a persistent pattern of tyre degradation. Specifically, the rear tyres have been flagged for cracking or perishing sidewalls in every inspection from 2022 through 2025. This is a classic symptom of a car that has spent significant periods standing idle or parked outdoors, as rubber compounds can deteriorate due to UV exposure and lack of rotation, even if the vehicle is not being driven frequently. The overall trend is stable rather than worsening, as the car has passed every MOT on its first attempt. The most recent inspection in April 2026 shows only slight wear on the front tyres, suggesting the previous rear tyre issues have likely been addressed. However, because the vehicle has been driven so sparingly, you cannot assume that low mileage equates to a lack of mechanical wear. When inspecting the car in person, your first priority should be a thorough check of all four tyres. Look for any signs of dry rot, cracking in the sidewalls, or uneven tread wear that might indicate alignment issues.
