2017 Volvo V40 1.5L Petrol · CT17 DBX

The 2017 Volvo V40 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 21 August 2025 at 68,206 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean MOT outcomes across the full available history. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a nine-year-old car. The record shows 44,361 miles at the 18 August 2021 test, rising to 53,200 by 28 July 2022, then 63,544 on 22 August 2023, 65,670 on 14 August 2024, and 68,206 in August 2025. The largest single-year jump was roughly 8,800 miles between 2021 and 2022; subsequent years dropped to near 10,000 then under 3,000, suggesting lighter recent use. No test gaps appear and the DVSA data carries zero advisories or failures. A clean sheet across five consecutive tests implies the previous owner kept on top of consumables and mechanical wear. With no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions issues, the underlying structure and running gear show no recorded deterioration. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection before purchase. Low recent mileage can mask perished rubber components, standing-water corrosion, or stiff calipers not visible in a pass result. Verify tyre sidewall condition, check for weeping suspension seals, and confirm the brake discs are free of lip and rust given the car covered under 3,000 miles in the last year.
