2019 Volvo XC40 1.5L Petrol · NK02 ACE

The 2026‑01‑10 MOT at 42,700 miles passed with no defects, confirming that the Volvo XC40 remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable trend rather than any worsening condition. Mileage has risen steadily from 25,292 miles in the 2022 test to 42,700 miles in the 2026 test, a gain of roughly 6,100 miles per year that matches the vehicle’s 2019 registration age and typical usage for a lightly driven family SUV. No large gaps appear between the annual tests, and each successive inspection recorded the expected incremental wear without sudden jumps. Recurring brake disc wear noted in every test from 2023 onward, together with thin brake pads, signals that the braking system has been subject to regular use and should be examined for disc thickness, pad material condition and caliper binding; the earlier 2024 rear tyre perishing and the 2025 near‑side front windscreen damage also merit close visual inspection for corrosion, structural rust and any impact‑related repairs. A buyer should therefore check the condition of the brake discs and pads, verify that suspension bushes and coil springs are intact and free of binding, inspect the chassis and wheel‑arch areas for rust, confirm the windscreen repair was performed correctly, and assess tyre wear and age, as these items reflect the documented pattern of moderate use and occasional neglect of consumables.
