2010 Volvo XC60 2.4L Diesel · B11 YAE

The vehicle holds a current MOT certificate valid until January 2026, with the most recent test conducted on January 14, 2026, at 225,132 miles resulting in a pass with no recorded defects. The testing history shows a stable trend over the last four years, transitioning from a failure in January 2023 to four consecutive clean passes. While the 2023 failure occurred on the same day as a subsequent pass, the absence of recorded advisories since that date suggests that common consumable items have been addressed promptly during recent inspections. The recorded mileage of 225,132 miles over a 16-year lifespan averages approximately 14,071 miles per annum, indicating consistent and heavy usage throughout the vehicle's life. This high-mileage profile exceeds typical domestic usage patterns, placing significant cumulative stress on the drivetrain, suspension geometry, and chassis components. The lack of recurring advisories in the recent record is notable for a vehicle with this level of wear, though it does not provide insight into the condition of internal engine components or the state of the transmission. Prospective buyers should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension bushes, ball joints, and coil springs, as these components are prone to fatigue at this mileage regardless of a clean MOT pass. Examine the underside for any signs of structural corrosion or previous welding repairs, particularly around the subframe mounting points. Given the high mileage, verify the operation of the braking system for any signs of binding or uneven pad wear that may not have been captured during the static MOT test. Prioritize a cold-start assessment to check for excessive smoke or irregular engine idle, as the MOT test does not evaluate the long-term health of the turbocharger or fuel injection systems. Buying score: 62. Risk level: Medium.
