2016 Volvo XC60 2.0L Diesel · EO66 AEN

This Volvo XC60 has demonstrated consistent roadworthiness over its MOT history, with every test since 2022 passing without defects or advisories. The most recent inspection in September 2025—conducted at 77,873 miles—confirmed no issues, reinforcing a stable maintenance pattern. While the absence of recorded faults suggests the vehicle has been regularly serviced, the lack of advisory notes also means no minor concerns were flagged, leaving critical components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers uncommented on. Buyers should verify these areas independently, as silent passes do not guarantee longevity. The mileage progression reveals a steady accumulation of approximately 7,787 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. There are no abrupt jumps or prolonged gaps between tests, though the interval between February 2023 (36,407 miles) and October 2023 (38,529 miles) spans just 8,122 miles—a shorter-than-usual gap that may indicate either a pre-MOT service or a deliberate effort to meet the test sooner. The most notable observation is the consistent 12-month cadence between major tests, suggesting the vehicle was driven regularly without prolonged storage. Given the clean MOT record, priority should be given to inspecting high-wear items that often go unnoticed without a detailed mechanical assessment. The suspension—particularly rear bushes and coil springs—should be checked for excessive play or corrosion, as these components degrade predictably over 77,000 miles. Brake discs and calipers warrant scrutiny, especially if the vehicle exhibits uneven wear or binding, though the lack of advisories does not preclude gradual deterioration. Structural integrity, including underbody corrosion and wheel arch integrity, must also be examined, as these risks are not always captured in a standard MOT. Finally, verify the condition of the exhaust system, as catalytic converter efficiency and tailpipe leaks are common failure points in Volvo models of this era.
