2013 Volvo V40 2.0L Diesel · AF13 AVY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the last four consecutive annual MOT tests. The most recent inspection conducted on April 4 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a trend of clean results from 2022, 2023, and 2024. This consistency indicates that the vehicle has not suffered major mechanical failures or safety-related regressions during the recorded testing periods. At 79,152 miles, the car has averaged approximately 6,089 miles per year over its 13-year life. This mileage pattern is consistent with low-intensity urban use and suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to high-mileage stress. The records show regular annual testing without any significant gaps in mileage accumulation or long periods of inactivity that could otherwise lead to seized components or degraded fluid quality. Because the MOT history contains no recorded advisories or failures, a physical inspection should focus on standard components subject to age-related degradation rather than acute wear. A buyer should examine the suspension bushes, control arms, and coil springs for cracking, as these often perish over time regardless of low mileage. Additionally, the brake discs should be checked for pitting or corrosion, and the exhaust system should be inspected for structural integrity against surface rust that may not yet be flagged. Buying score: 82 Risk level: Low.
