2011 Volvo V50 1.6L Diesel · ND61 AYB

The vehicle's MOT history shows a stable trend of passing tests over the last four years. After a failed test on 10 May 2023, the car secured three consecutive passes without any recorded defects. The most recent test on 15 April 2025 resulted in a pass with no advisories or failures. This sequence suggests that any mechanical issues identified during the 2023 failure were rectified, and the vehicle has met minimum regulatory standards for the subsequent two testing cycles. The recorded mileage of 132,529 miles reflects an average annual usage of approximately 8,835 miles for a 15-year-old vehicle. This usage pattern is consistent with typical UK driving habits. The records do not indicate any periods of significant neglect or extreme mileage spikes between the 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025 tests. The data provided is relatively clean, as no specific mileage figures were attached to the individual historical test dates to allow for a more granular analysis of distance covered per annum. While the recent records are free of defects, the absence of advisories for components like brake discs, tyres, or suspension bushes does not guarantee their current condition. A physical inspection should focus on checking for corrosion on the underside and exhaust system, as well as inspecting the condition of the suspension components and shock absorbers. Given the age of the vehicle, verifying the integrity of rubber seals and checking for any signs of fluid leaks around the drivetrain would be a prudent step for a prospective buyer.
