Our Verdict
A reasonable choice for a large family d
Prioritise the tyre condition mentioned in the June 2026 MOT; the front and nearside rear tyres are noted as being close to the legal limit and wearing on the edges, meaning they will likely require immediate replacement. Check the service history for evidence of major interval maintenance, such as the timing belt and water pump, which are critical for this 1969cc diesel engine at this mileage.
Negotiate based on the cost of the required tyres. Ensure you verify the full service record to see if the maintenance has kept pace with the above-average mileage recorded for this model.
The 2.0L diesel engine is designed for efficiency over long distances, but the XC90's size and weight contribute to higher tyre and brake wear. It will sit in a higher insurance group and tax band typical for a premium large SUV of this age.
Maintenance costs for Volvo's premium range can be significant, especially when using genuine parts for complex electronic systems. Expect annual costs to be higher than a standard family car due to the vehicle's specifications and weight.
Inspect the tyres specifically, looking for the edge wear highlighted in the 2026 MOT report. Test the parking brake efficiency and operation thoroughly, as aggregate data for over 67,000 XC90s identifies the parking brake as a top reason for MOT failure.
Check all headlamps for correct operation and lens clarity, as these are also frequently cited as failure points for this model. Given the mileage, a professional check of the suspension components is advised to ensure there is no excessive wear.
This white 2016 Volvo XC90 has recorded 110,037 miles. Its most recent MOT in June 2026 was a pass, although it noted wear on the front and nearside rear tyres. The previous 2025 test was passed with no defects recorded.
Aggregate data from 67,571 vehicles shows an average MOT pass rate of 80.2%, with headlamps and parking brakes being the most common failure points.
