2014 Volvo V60 2.4L Diesel · LS14 LNT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on March 28, 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable, although the record shows a failure on that same day due to an offside rear tyre with tread depth below the legal limit. This issue was immediately rectified, as the previous tests in 2024 and 2025 returned no defects, suggesting that the core mechanical and structural integrity remained sound throughout those periods of operation. At 102,670 miles, the Volvo has averaged approximately 8,556 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a twelve-year-old estate. The mileage data shows consistent annual accumulation, with roughly 6,400 miles driven between the 2025 and 2026 tests and approximately 6,400 miles in the year preceding that. This regularity is generally positive as it avoids long periods of stationary storage which can lead to the degradation of rubber components, fluid acidity, and brake seizing. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system and suspension based on the recurring advisories. The March 2023 test flagged thin rear brake pads and a nearside rear tyre worn on the edge, which often indicates an alignment issue or a sticking caliper. While the subsequent tests showed no defects, a physical inspection should verify the rear brake discs for uneven wear and check the suspension bushes for signs of perished or cracking. Given the age and mileage, checking the condition of the underbody for structural corrosion is also essential to ensure no hidden rust pockets have developed between the annual inspections.
