2012 Volvo XC90 2.4L Diesel · B11 RAB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a passed MOT recorded on 2025‑11‑29 at 143,525 miles. The most recent test is eight months old relative to 2026‑08‑08, keeping the certificate valid until November 2026. A failure just three days earlier at 143,518 miles was rectified on retest, indicating a minor, promptly addressed issue rather than a worsening condition. Overall the maintenance trend remains stable, with no recurring defects across the five annual tests. Mileage accumulation follows a predictable pattern for a 14‑year‑old model. Annualised usage averages roughly 10,252 miles per year, rising from 119,960 miles in 2022 to 128,509 miles in 2023, then to 136,072 miles in 2024, and finally to 143,525 miles in 2025. The jump between the 2024 and 2025 tests added about 7,453 miles, while the gap between the failed and passed entries in 2025 added only seven miles, suggesting a temporary dip in usage or a brief period of inactivity. The data set is clean, with no detailed defect logs, reflecting consistent basic upkeep. A prospective buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes and coil‑spring condition, the brake assembly for caliper binding or disc wear, and the exhaust and underbody for corrosion. Body panels and frame rails merit a close look for rust or structural compromise, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Consumables such as tyre tread depth and wiper blades should also be checked, as these are typical wear items not captured in the MOT record.
