2010 Volvo XC60 2.4L Diesel · CT60 AWW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in October 2025 at 111,078 miles. The maintenance trend shows a period of instability followed by a significant failure in late 2024. While the 2024 test revealed critical suspension and brake failures, the subsequent pass in 2025 without defects suggests the immediate repairs were addressed, leading to a temporarily stable state. The mileage pattern is consistent with a lower-use vehicle of its age, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 9,000 miles between November 2023 and October 2024, followed by another 9,000-mile interval leading to the most recent test in October 2025. This steady accumulation suggests the car is not subjected to extreme annual stress, though the age of the vehicle means rubber components and metal fatigue may be degrading despite the low odometer reading. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the front suspension architecture. The 2024 failure noted that both the nearside and offside front coil springs fractured simultaneously, a common indicator of material fatigue or heavy impact. The history also shows a recurring pattern of brake neglect, with thin pads noted in 2022 and 2023, and a critical failure in 2024 where rear pads were below the 1.5mm limit. The previous nearside front brake binding in 2023 should also be rechecked to ensure the caliper piston is not seizing or causing uneven disc wear.
