2018 Volvo V60 2.0L Diesel · OU18 AYJ

The Volvo V60 is currently roadworthy, the most recent MOT on 26 March 2025 recording a pass at 90 657 miles with a single minor defect: the offside rear registration‑plate lamp was inoperative (4.7.1 (b)(i)). No other faults were noted, and the vehicle has not accumulated any serious or recurring defects since the clean test in February 2024. The maintenance trend is therefore stable, with only a consumable lamp issue emerging after a period of trouble‑free operation. Mileage progression shows a steady rate of roughly 9.5 k miles per year. Between the March 2023 test (69 650 miles) and February 2024 (79 973 miles) the vehicle added 10 323 miles in eleven months, and from February 2024 to March 2025 it gained 10 684 miles over thirteen months. This consistent accumulation aligns with typical usage for an eight‑year‑old model. The MOT record is sparse, comprising only three entries across three years, which limits the ability to detect long‑term wear patterns. A prospective buyer should inspect the registration‑plate lamp assembly to confirm both rear lamps operate correctly, examine suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or excessive wear, and check brake discs, pads and calipers for binding or uneven wear. The exhaust system should be inspected for corrosion, and the underbody panels for rust, given the vehicle’s age. Tyre tread depth and wiper‑blade condition are also essential consumables to verify, as they reflect the care regime of previous owners.
