2010 Volvo V60 2.4L Diesel · DV60 WNM

This Volvo V60 has maintained a clean MOT history with no recorded defects or advisories across all five tests, including the most recent examination on January 13, 2026. The absence of any failures or advisories suggests the vehicle has consistently met DVSA roadworthiness standards for brakes, suspension, emissions, and structural integrity over the past six years. However, the duplicate entry for January 8, 2024—a failed test followed immediately by a pass at the same mileage—raises minor curiosity, though no defects were logged, implying either a retest or a procedural anomaly rather than a mechanical issue. The mileage progression of approximately 11,700 miles per year aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, with no prolonged periods of inactivity or unusually rapid accumulation. The gap between tests is consistent at around 12 months, which is standard for MOT intervals. There is no evidence of extended storage or neglect, as the vehicle appears to have been driven regularly without abrupt mileage spikes or drops. Given the lack of recorded faults, an in-person inspection should prioritise components prone to wear at this mileage: the rear suspension bushes and coil springs, which may show fatigue after 187,000 miles; the brake calipers and discs, particularly for binding or uneven wear; and the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks, especially around flanges and joints. The absence of advisories does not preclude hidden issues such as minor corrosion in wheel arches or subframe areas, so structural integrity should be visually inspected for rust penetration or weakened sections. Tyre condition, while not flagged in MOTs, warrants confirmation of even tread depth and lack of sidewall damage, as failing twice on tread suggests basic upkeep may have been inconsistent.
