2019 Volvo V60 2.0L Diesel · KT19 DLX

The Volvo V60 is currently roadworthy following its most recent MOT test on 2025-07-15, which was conducted at 51,647 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable pattern with no major defects reported in the latest test, though minor issues with oil misting on both rear shock absorbers were noted. This suggests the suspension components are showing early signs of wear but are not yet critical. The vehicle has passed all tests since 2022, indicating consistent upkeep and no escalating mechanical concerns. The mileage progression reflects a typical usage rate for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,378 miles annually. There is a noticeable gap between the 2022 and 2023 MOTs, with the vehicle accumulating 10,916 miles in just one year. This rapid increase may indicate periods of heavy use or long intervals between services. However, the absence of defects in the 2022 test and the consistent passing of subsequent MOTs suggest the vehicle has been maintained appropriately despite the fluctuating usage. Recurring tyre wear on the nearside front and offside front tyres in 2023 and 2024 warrants attention, as this could point to alignment issues, suspension wear, or improper inflation. The thinning front brake pads in 2024 also indicate that brake components may require inspection or replacement soon. While the rear shock absorbers are currently only showing oil misting, this is a precursor to potential failure and should be monitored closely. Buyers should inspect the suspension for any signs of excessive wear, check brake pad thickness, and verify tyre condition and alignment during a pre-purchase inspection.
