2017 Volvo XC60 2.4L Diesel · KY67 KSN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than preventative care. While the most recent test on 22 August 2025 at 61,600 miles resulted in a pass, it followed a significant failure on the same day. The presence of a fractured offside rear coil spring and multiple tyre failures, including a tyre below the legal tread depth limit, indicates that the owner only addresses mechanical faults once they reach an MOT failure threshold. The mileage progression is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. Between August 2023 at 44,777 miles and August 2024 at 51,910 miles, the car covered 7,133 miles, followed by 9,690 miles in the year leading to the 2025 test. This steady usage suggests the vehicle is driven regularly, but the low annual mileage does not excuse for the recurring neglect of rubber components and braking systems. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension system, as the fractured offside rear coil spring in the 2025 failure suggests other components may be nearing the end of life. The record shows a persistent trend of poor brake maintenance, with pads flagged as dangerously thin in 2023 and further issues noted shortly after. The braking system should be checked for uneven wear on the discs, given the history of allowing pads to run down to the minimum. Tyre condition is another primary concern as the history shows multiple reports of perishing, cracking, and structural damage across different axles. The offside front wiper was also noted for smearing in 2025, indicating that basic consumable items are frequently overlooked. Verify the current state of all tyres and the operation of the registration plate illumination, as these have been recurring points of failure over the last three years.
