2009 Volvo V50 1.6L Diesel · FN09 GUU

The 2009 Volvo V50 presents a stable roadworthiness trend based on the most recent test. In the May 2023 examination at 164,029 miles the tester passed the vehicle with no defects recorded, matching the clean result from May 2022 at 153,973 miles. The maintenance history shows no worsening faults, advisories, or repeated failures across the two available records. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 17 year old car. The record shows 10,056 miles covered between May 2022 and May 2023, equating to roughly 9,600 miles per year across the vehicle's life. Only two annual tests appear in the supplied data, so the history is sparse but clean, with no gaps suggesting prolonged disuse or abrupt high use. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points beneath the sills and subframes, as a 2009 estate of this age commonly develops rust even when MOT tests show clear. The suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant physical measurement given the 164,029 miles on the clock. The absence of recorded advisories across both tests implies previous owners addressed wear before each examination rather than deferring consumable replacement. Verify the May 2023 pass remains current against today's July 2026 date, as the vehicle is now over three years from its last recorded test and may require a fresh MOT before road use.
