2016 Volvo V40 2.0L Petrol · DC66 WOM

The 2016 Volvo V40 demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with all five MOT tests since 2022 passing without defects. The most recent test on 2025-12-10 at 72,373 miles confirmed no issues, aligning with prior results from 2024-12-05 (61,759 miles), 2023-12-18 (49,284 miles), and 2022-12-21 (38,904 miles). No advisories or failures indicate consistent maintenance, though the absence of recorded defects does not preclude minor wear in components like suspension bushes or brake discs. The vehicle’s mileage of 72,373 miles, averaging 7,237 annual miles, reflects typical usage for its age, with no evidence of excessive strain on drivetrain or structural elements. Mileage progression shows regular testing intervals, though a gap between the 2022-08-08 test (35,798 miles) and 2022-12-21 test (38,904 miles) suggests a four-month period with 3,106 miles added. This aligns with normal usage but lacks data on intermediate servicing. Subsequent tests at 38,904, 49,284, 61,759, and 72,373 miles confirm no escalating issues, though the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into gradual component degradation. The vehicle’s history lacks anomalies, implying no significant mechanical or structural faults requiring urgent attention. A buyer should verify in-person the condition of suspension components, particularly coil springs and bushings, which may show wear not flagged in MOT records. Brake discs and calipers, critical for safety, should be inspected for uneven wear or corrosion, as these can develop over time without triggering immediate failures. Exhaust system integrity, including emissions compliance, remains untested beyond MOT results, so a visual check for rust or leaks is advisable. While the MOT history suggests responsible ownership, physical inspection of high-mileage wear points and corrosion-prone areas is essential to confirm the vehicle’s ongoing reliability.
