2013 Volvo XC90 2.4L Diesel · NG13 AFA

This Volvo XC90 demonstrates a consistent roadworthiness record with no defects or advisories across five consecutive MOT tests, most recently passing on 25 April 2025 at 95,307 miles. The absence of any failings—whether for suspension bushes, coil springs, binding calipers, brake discs, or structural corrosion—suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a baseline standard, though the record does not reveal whether preventative work (such as fluid changes or alignment checks) was performed between tests. The most recent test occurred just over three months ago, which is within the acceptable window for a vehicle of this age, though buyers should verify whether the current owner has adhered to any advisories from previous tests (none were recorded). The mileage progression of approximately 7,300 miles per year aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, with no abrupt jumps or prolonged periods of inactivity. The intervals between tests—around 12 months each—are standard, and there are no gaps suggesting the car was left unregistered or driven excessively between services. While this pattern indicates regular movement, it does not confirm the frequency of non-MOT-related maintenance, such as brake pad replacements or suspension servicing, which are not captured in the MOT history. Given the clean record, a buyer should prioritise an inspection of high-wear components not directly tested by the MOT, including the condition of the rear suspension bushes (common in Volvo XC90 models of this era) and the integrity of the subframe and sills for corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and wheel housings. The brakes, though not failed, should be assessed for uneven wear or glazing, while the exhaust system warrants scrutiny for leaks or excessive rust, especially near the catalytic converter and oxygen sensors. The engine bay should be checked for fluid leaks, and the power steering and cooling systems should be inspected for contamination or degradation, as these are not routinely flagged in MOT tests but can pose long-term risks.
