2013 Volvo XC90 2.4L Diesel · LK63 EUU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a shift toward reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in August 2025 at 120,748 miles resulted in a pass only after addressing failures related to consumable components and lighting. While the vehicle passed its latest inspection, the presence of thin brake pads, pitted discs, and worn tyres suggests that the previous owner deferred maintenance until the MOT deadline. This represents a worsening trend in mechanical upkeep compared to the clean record seen in 2023. At 120,748 miles over 13 years, this XC90 averages approximately 9,300 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a large SUV. The data shows consistent annual mileage, with roughly 7,500 miles covered between July 2023 and August 2024, and another 7,500 miles between August 2024 and August 2025. This regular usage suggests the vehicle is used consistently, which is generally beneficial for preventing seals and mechanical components seizing from long periods of standing. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front braking system, as the 2025 record flagged both thin pads and scored discs. The outer-edge wear on both front tyres also indicates potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that should be verified physically. Given the age and mileage of the vehicle, the inspection should also check for structural corrosion on the undercarriage and exhaust system, as these areas were not specifically highlighted recently but are common points of failure for this model at this age.
