2014 Volvo XC60 2.0L Diesel · CV14 LRZ

The Volvo XC60 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 April 2025 at 146,472 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed entry on 18 April 2023 at 136,075 miles that carries no recorded defects, immediately followed by a pass on the same day at identical mileage, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. At roughly 12 years old the vehicle shows 146,472 miles, an average of about 12,206 miles per year, which is high for its age and points to sustained motorway or business use. Annual accumulation stayed consistent: 14,703 miles between April 2022 and April 2023, then around 4,964 miles to April 2024 and 5,433 miles to April 2025, so the recent years reflect lighter use than the earlier period. The DVSA record is sparse on advisories, with no corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions concerns flagged across the five entries. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of consumable wear given the mileage. High annual totals accelerate tyre, wiper blade, and brake pad degradation even when testers log no advisories. The clean history suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but the same-day fail and pass in April 2023 warrants a check of the test centre paperwork to confirm no suppressed defect. Focus the viewing on structural integrity and drivetrain condition. Volvo XC60 units of this era suffer rear subframe corrosion and front coil spring fractures; the MOT omitted such notes, yet 146,000 miles demands scrutiny of suspension arms and binding calipers. Verify the service record matches the odometer, as the fall in yearly mileage may mask deferred maintenance.
