2009 Volvo C30 1.6L Petrol · CP09 HRL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 30 September 2025 at 47 368 miles with no defects recorded. The absence of faults at the latest test indicates a stable maintenance trend, as the car has not accumulated new issues since the previous inspection in September 2024, despite a brief failure earlier that year. Mileage accumulation shows a low‑usage pattern for a 2009 model, averaging roughly 2 800 miles per year over the past 17 years. The increase from 44 046 miles in September 2024 to 47 368 miles a year later reflects modest wear, while earlier gaps—such as the 12‑month interval between 2023 and 2024—demonstrate consistent, light service of the car. The overall mileage progression is steady rather than accelerating, suggesting the vehicle has been stored or driven infrequently. A buyer should inspect the power‑steering rack for any seepage, check the offside front door mirror case is present and secure, and test the service brakes for binding at the front and rear. The suspension should be examined for wear on the front lower arm pins and bushes, and the rear tyres should be measured against legal tread depth limits. Additionally, verify headlamp aim, inspect the exhaust for corrosion, and assess the condition of the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear. These checks will confirm whether the recorded advisories have been addressed and that the car remains mechanically sound.
