2016 Volvo V60 2.0L Diesel · KN16 CCF

The vehicle remains currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of deferred tyre replacement. While the most recent test in March 2026 at 92,098 miles passed, it returned with advisories for a damaged nearside rear sidewall and a worn offside rear tyre. This mirrors a pattern seen in the 2024 test where the car failed initially due to three tyres being at or below the legal tread depth limit. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,200 miles per annum. Between March 2023 at 66,630 miles and March 2026 at 92,098 miles, the car covered roughly 25,000 miles, indicating a steady usage pattern. This regular interval suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, though the recurring nature of tyre-related faults suggests the previous owner only addresses consumable items when prompted by an MOT failure rather than performing preventative maintenance. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the geometry and suspension components. The repeated reports of tyres worn on the inner edges in 2024 and 2026 strongly indicate potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes and ball joints. A technician should check for uneven tyre patterns across the entire set to ensure the steering rack is not suffering premature wear. Given the mileage approaching the 100,000-mile mark, the condition of the brake discs and calipers should also be verified, as the record does not detail any binding or corrosion issues historically.
