AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable maintenance profile with a consistent record of roadworthiness. The most recent MOT on 24 March 2026 at 116,882 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a four year trend of flawless test results, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard and likely serviced proactively to prevent common faults from appearing during annual inspections. The mileage pattern is consistent and typical for a 14 year old vehicle. Between the 29 March 2022 test at 105,053 miles and the latest test in March 2026, the car covered 11,829 miles. This averages to roughly 2,957 miles per year over the last four years, suggesting light use in recent times. There are no erratic jumps or suspicious drops in the recorded odometer readings, which points to a transparent ownership history. While the MOT record is clean, the age and weight of the XC90 mean certain components require manual verification. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishment or stress fractures, as these often wear out regardless of MOT outcomes. Checking for underbody corrosion and inspecting the brake discs for pitting or lip formation is advised, particularly given the lower annual mileage which can lead to surface rust on braking components. The lack of any advisories regarding exhaust emissions or oil leaks over the last five tests suggests a healthy drivetrain. Focus your physical inspection on the condition of the tyres and the operation of the electrics. Because the DVSA records show no recurring failures, the primary risk is simply age-related degradation of rubber seals and plastic components rather than systemic mechanical neglect.
