2019 Volvo V60 2.0L Diesel · AP19 HBX

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows signs of recent decline in basic upkeep standards. While the most recent test in February 2026 at 51,883 miles passed, the tester flagged a damaged offside front windscreen and both front inner tyres worn to the legal limit. This represents a shift from the previous three years where the vehicle recorded zero defects, suggesting that the owner may be neglecting routine consumable replacements in the current service interval. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical low-mileage use, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per year over its seven-year life. Between the 2022 test at 12,636 miles and the 2025 test at 35,051 miles, the usage remained steady. However, there was a notable increase of 16,832 miles between February 2025 and February 2026. This sudden spike in mileage over the final year likely correlates with the rapid wear observed on the front tyres noted in the latest MOT inspection. A buyer should personally inspect the front suspension geometry to determine if the edge wear on the inner tyres is caused by misalignment or worn bushes and ball. The previous cut on the nearside rear tyre in 2025 indicates a history of potential sidewall damage across the entire rubber set. Given the recent windscreen damage, the glass should be checked for cracks that could propagate and lead to a future failure, even if it did not affect the driver's view during the last test.
