2015 Volvo XC90 2.0L Diesel · EU65 AAK

The vehicle remains roadworthy as of the 19 December 2025 MOT at 145,052 miles, passing all mandatory checks. The tester flagged only the off‑side front tyre as worn close to the legal limit, a consumable‑wear issue that does not affect the overall pass status. No new defects appear since the previous year’s clean test, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Across an 11‑year span the odometer has risen to 145,052 miles, averaging roughly 13,200 miles per year – a higher utilisation rate than typical for a Volvo of this age. Mileage increased from 33,967 miles in December 2018 to 45,788 miles a year later (+11,821), then to 56,307 miles (+10,519), 70,487 miles (+14,180), 84,275 miles (+13,788), 101,212 miles (+16,937), 119,229 miles (+18,017) and finally 145,052 miles (+25,823). The accelerating annual increments, especially the 25,823‑mile jump between December 2024 and December 2025, suggest a period of more intensive use. A prospective buyer should examine the front tyre tread closely and be prepared for imminent replacement, given the repeat advisory in 2022 and again in 2025. Inspect the rear brake discs and pads for wear, as the 2022‑2023 records noted thin pads and disc wear; confirm that disc thickness remains within safe limits and that there is no scoring. Verify the lower front suspension ball joints for excessive play, a condition first recorded in December 2022, by checking for clunking noises and uneven tyre wear. Finally, scan the chassis and suspension mounting points for any corrosion that could compromise structural integrity, especially after the vehicle’s relatively high mileage.
