2016 Volvo XC90 2.0L Diesel · FV66 FPP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record in its most recent inspection. The January 2026 test at 122,668 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets current MOT requirements. This follows a minor advisory in December 2024 at 119,712 miles regarding a slightly damaged or perishing offside rear tyre, a typical consumable wear issue that appears to have been addressed. The mileage accumulation shows a consistent and relatively high usage pattern for a 2016 vehicle. Between October 2020 and November 2022, the mileage rose from 75,442 to 105,618, averaging approximately 15,000 miles per year. The subsequent interval between November 2022 and December 2024 saw a similar increase of roughly 12,000 miles. This steady progression suggests regular motorway or long-distance driving rather than short, infrequent trips, which generally benefits the health of the engine and exhaust system. A significant mechanical event occurred in October 2020 at 75,442 miles when the vehicle failed on extensive brake wear. The tester flagged thin brake pads on both front and rear axles, alongside pitted and scored brake discs across all four wheels. While the subsequent passes suggest these components were replaced, a buyer should verify the age and condition of the current braking system. High-mileage vehicles like this XC90 often require frequent attention to brake discs and pads due to the vehicle's weight. Given the high annual mileage, a physical inspection should focus on suspension components and drivetrain integrity. While the MOT history lacks advisories for suspension bushes or coil springs, the consistent use of the vehicle increases the likelihood of wear in these areas. Checking for any signs of fluid leaks or uneven tyre wear will help confirm that the mechanical upkeep has remained as consistent as the MOT pass history suggests.
