2022 Volvo XC40 Rdesign PRO T5 Recharge A 1.5L Hybrid electric · KP22 FYR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT on April 14,2026. The maintenance trend appears stable, although the immediate failure on that same day indicates a lapse in minor inspections. The test initially failed at 88,317 miles due to a defective offside windscreen wiper and a damaged offside rear tyre reaching the ply cords. The fact that these issues were rectified immediately to achieve passing suggests the owner is responsive to safety failures once they are flagged. The mileage profile indicates heavy usage for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 22,000 miles per year. Between the April 2025 test at 81,174 miles and the April 2026 test at 88,317 miles, the car covered 7,143 miles. This high rate of accumulation suggests consistent, likely motorway driving, which typically places less strain on the clutch and brakes than city-based use but increases the overall wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushings. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension components and bushes, as the high mileage accelerates the degradation of control arms and coil springs. While the MOT record shows no structural corrosion or mechanical issues, the rapid mileage necessitates a close check of brake pad thickness and disc surfaces for uneven wear. Given the recent failure for a cut tyre, verify that all remaining tyres are free of sidewall damage and possess sufficient tread depth to avoid immediate failures at high speeds.
