Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to the high mil
Prioritise a review of the service history, specifically looking for evidence of timing belt and water pump replacements, which are critical for the 2.4L diesel engine at this mileage. Since the rear coil springs were flagged as fractured in October 2023, verify that these were replaced with quality parts rather than temporary fixes.
Negotiate based on the high mileage, which exceeds the model average. Check for any recent invoices regarding the rear brake discs, as these were noted as worn, pitted, or scored during the 2021 inspection.
The 2.4L diesel engine offers strong performance but will incur higher road tax and fuel costs than smaller variants. Insurance groups for the XC60 are typically moderate, but the engine size and age will influence the premium.
Maintenance costs are likely to be higher for this specific vehicle given it has surpassed 140,000 miles. Expect increased spending on wear-and-tear items such as suspension components and braking systems.
Carefully inspect the rear suspension. This vehicle failed its MOT on 2023-10-09 due to both the nearside and offside rear coil springs being fractured; ensure the replacements are in good condition. This is consistent with aggregate data identifying coil springs as a top failure reason for the XC60.
Check the condition of the rear brake discs and the windscreen, both of which were flagged with advisories in September 2021. Additionally, ensure that any under-trays are properly secured and not obscuring vital components, as previously noted in the MOT history.
This black 2012 Volvo XC60 2.4L diesel has recorded 143,744 miles as of October 2023. Its MOT history includes a failure in 2023 due to fractured rear coil springs, a known weak point for this model. The vehicle's mileage is above the average for its age, though it has passed its most recent inspections.
The XC60 has an average MOT pass rate of 84.6%, with coil springs frequently cited as a primary cause of failure across the model range.
