2002 Volvo S60 2.4L Diesel · GL02 KVS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT test on 18 June 2025 at 113,002 miles with no defects recorded. This clean result follows a single failure on the same day in 2024, which was rectified immediately to allow for a pass upon re-test. The fact that the car has cleared all items in the last three tests suggests that the previous owner was proactive in addressing minor mechanical requirements and maintaining a consistent level of maintenance over the last three years of operation. At approximately 24 years old, the recorded mileage of 113,002 miles represents a low average of roughly 4,700 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with the vehicle covering approximately 4,100 miles between 2022 and 2023, and roughly 7,000 miles between 2023 and 2024. While low annual mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it also increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber parts, seals, and fluid components which can become brittle or perish during periods of shorter use. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity and suspension components, as these are common areas of failure for Volvos of this era regardless of mileage. Despite the clean MOT history, check for corrosion on the subframes, brake lines, and rear arches where road salt often accumulates. Given the age of the vehicle, verifying the condition of the shock absorbers and control arm bushings is essential, as these parts do not always trigger an MOT failure until they reach significant degradation.
