2002 Volvo S60 2.0L Petrol · LV51 CTK

The most recent MOT result from May 2026 was a pass, with the only noted issue being worn or scored front brake discs on both sides. The history shows a pattern of recurring issues, specifically relating to the engine management system and exhaust emissions, as well as suspension components. The previous failure in May 2025 highlighted engine and exhaust issues, and the failure in May 2024 pointed to track rod end misalignment. The trend in the MOT history is not clearly improving or worsening; rather, it shows persistent mechanical concerns across different systems over the recorded period. The mileage of 128,405 miles for a vehicle of this age suggests a relatively low annual mileage, which could indicate lighter use or extended periods of standing, although this does not rule out wear on specific components. A buyer must thoroughly inspect the brake system, paying close attention to the condition of the front brake discs, as this was noted in the latest inspection. Secondly, given the history of suspension component issues, the buyer needs to check the nearside and offside front suspension arms and pins for excessive wear or damage. Finally, the buyer should investigate the engine management system and exhaust system to ensure the issues noted in previous years are resolved and that the current emissions readings are within specification.
