2017 Volvo XC60 2.4L Diesel · ND17 TZS

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status having passed its most recent inspection without any defects. The test conducted on 6 May 2026 at 61,066 miles recorded no failures, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory, moving from a significant failure in 2025 to a clean sheet in the two most recent tests. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. Between the June 2024 test at 51,321 miles and the May 2025 test at 58,317 miles, the car covered roughly 7,000 miles in eleven months. The subsequent interval saw 2,749 miles covered prior to the May 2026 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular use which generally prevents the degradation of rubber components and seals often seen in vehicles that sit stationary for long periods. A buyer should pay close attention to the tyres as the record reveals a recurring history of poor condition. The 2023 test at 42,332 miles flagged a perishing sidewall, and the April 2025 failure at 58,300 miles resulted in all four tyres failing due to cuts reaching the cords. While these have clearly been replaced, the pattern suggests a previous history of neglecting basic consumable upkeep or using low-quality rubber. An inspection should confirm the current tyre set shows no signs of sidewall cracking or impact damage. Since the MOT record shows no history of structural corrosion or brake failures, the focus should remain on the suspension and drivetrain components. Given the age of the XC60, a physical check of the control arm bushes and coil springs is advisable, despite no faults being flagged recently. The lack of advisories in the latest tests suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained following the major tyre-related failure.
