2021 Volvo XC90 R-Design B5 Mhev AWD Auto 2.0L Electric diesel · KJ21 WYR

The vehicle presents a stable mechanical profile with a clean roadworthiness record. The most recent inspection on 21 July 2025 at 45,718 miles resulted in a pass with zero defects recorded. This follows a similar outcome in July 2024, indicating the car has met DVSA standards without requiring significant remedial work. The maintenance trend appears consistent, with no history of structural corrosion or suspension deterioration noted in the official logs. Usage patterns shifted notably between the two recorded tests. The vehicle accumulated 16,719 miles between the July 2024 and July 2025 inspections, a sharp increase compared to the approximate 9,000 miles per year average calculated over its five-year lifespan. This recent high mileage period suggests the car has potentially served as a heavy-duty commuter or long-distance transport in the last year. The current MOT remains valid for nearly another month, yet the high annual mileage warrants a close look at consumable wear. With no advisories or failures listed in the history, the focus for a physical inspection should centre on wear items consistent with the recent 16,000-mile annual usage. Inspectors should examine the brake discs and pads for thickness, as high mileage accelerates friction material degradation. Given the vehicle is a Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV), check the hybrid battery system and drive belts for signs of fatigue. Verify the service history aligns with this intense recent usage to ensure the engine oil and transmission fluid were refreshed adequately.
