2016 Volvo XC60 2.0L Diesel · KF12 BAX

The 2026‑04‑15 MOT at 38,320 miles passed with no defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable, defect‑free trend since the previous test. The mileage trajectory reveals a low annual average of roughly 3,800 miles, but the increments between tests show notable acceleration: from 2024‑04‑25 (28,273 miles) to 2025‑04‑15 (33,364 miles) the vehicle accumulated 5,091 miles in a year, and another 4,956 miles in the following year, suggesting increased usage after a relatively steady period between 2019 and 2024. A buyer should therefore focus on the suspension system, checking for worn bushes, coil spring fatigue, and any binding rear brakes, as these components often exhibit wear after higher mileage; the 2022 tyre defect indicates that the front outer tyre may have suffered perishing, so a thorough tyre tread and sidewall inspection is essential, along with assessment of structural rust on the chassis and wheel arches. Finally, the absence of recurring mechanical failures beyond the single tyre issue implies that, provided the suspension, brake, and structural checks are satisfactory, the XC60 can be considered a reliable used‑car candidate, though a pre‑purchase inspection should verify that no hidden corrosion or suspension wear has developed since the last MOT.
