2021 Volvo XC60 Momentum B5 Mhev Auto 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · FX21 OJB

A pattern of recurring tyre-related advisories has characterised the recent MOT history for this vehicle, though the most recent test on 10 July 2026 shows no defects recorded. While the 2024 and 2025 inspections flagged multiple instances of tyre cracking, perishing, or damage across various positions, the absence of these advisories in the latest 2026 result suggests that the previously noted tyre issues have been addressed. The overall trend shows a transition from multiple tyre advisories to a clean pass, indicating a temporary period of compliance regarding the vehicle's contact surfaces. The recorded mileage of 39,539 miles for a 2021 model represents an average annual accumulation of approximately 7,908 miles. This usage profile is consistent with typical domestic driving patterns for a vehicle of this age. Mechanically, this level of mileage suggests that while the drivetrain and major structural components have not been subjected to heavy long-distance motorway use, the vehicle has seen enough regular movement to avoid the immediate degradation often associated with long-term stationary periods. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the condition of the tyres during a physical inspection, as the repeated advisories for cracking and perishing in 2024 and 2025 indicate a history of rubber degradation. Even with the clean 2026 pass, it is prudent to inspect the sidewalls and tread depth of all four tyres for any signs of uneven wear or age-related cracking. On a test drive, listen for any rhythmic thumping or humming noises that could indicate irregular tyre wear or internal belt damage, and check for any steering pull that might suggest the previous tyre issues were symptomatic of underlying alignment problems. The 2024 advisory regarding a misaligned offside mirror casing is a minor cosmetic and functional point, but it is worth verifying that the mirror housing is secure and the glass adjusts smoothly without vibration. Given the history of tyre advisories, a thorough check of the suspension components is also advisable to ensure that the tyres were not wearing prematurely due to worn bushes or dampers. During the test drive, pay close attention to the vehicle's response to road imperfections, looking for any knocks or excessive movement through the steering wheel that would indicate the suspension is not performing as expected.
