2010 Volvo XC60 2.4L Diesel · AV60 BNK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive mechanical care. While the most recent test in September 2025 at 141,387 miles resulted in a pass, it followed a failure for a defective wiper and deteriorated registration plate. This follows a more significant period in late 2024 where the vehicle failed on multiple suspension-related defects, suggesting that the owner only addresses faults once they fail an inspection rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. At 141,387 miles, this sixteen-year-old Volvo XC60 has averaged approximately 8,800 miles per year, which is consistent with typical UK usage for a premium SUV. The data shows consistent use, with 5,179 miles covered between October 2023 and October 2024, and another 3,808 miles leading into the 2025 test. This steady mileage indicates the vehicle is not sitting idle, but the cumulative mileage places significant stress on rubber-based components and bushings common of this age. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the front and rear suspension assemblies. The record shows recurring issues with wishbone bushes, trailing arm bushes, and anti-roll bar linkage dust covers during late 2024. These components are prone to cracking and tearing on this model, and the buyer should check for play in the control arms and visible weeping from the ball joints to ensure the previous repairs were thorough. Additionally, the persistent deterioration of the rear registration plate across multiple tests suggests a lack of attention to minor cosmetic and safety items.
