2016 Volvo V60 2.0L Diesel · P55 KJG

The 2016 Volvo V60 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 March 2026 at 78,961 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from March 2023 to March 2025 also passed clean. The only blemish is a failed test on 22 March 2023 at 65,006 miles, reversed the next day with a pass at the same mileage and no defects logged. This suggests an administrative or minor pre-check issue rather than a mechanical fault, and the vehicle has shown no worsening condition across its recorded history. The mileage pattern sits at a typical level for a ten-year-old car. The record shows 65,006 miles in March 2023, 67,934 in March 2024, 73,524 in March 2025, and 78,961 in March 2026. That equates to roughly 3,000 to 5,500 miles added each year, well below the 7,896 annual average implied by the odometer. The data is sparse but clean, with no advisories on tyres, brake discs, suspension bushes, or corrosion across any entry. Low annual use of this kind can mean longer periods standing, which often accelerates perishing of rubber components and surface rust on structural points even when the MOT stays clear. A buyer should still inspect the vehicle in person for age-related issues the MOT may not capture. Check coil springs and suspension arms for fatigue from intermittent use, and examine brake calipers for binding after standing idle. Inspect underside subframes and sills for early corrosion, as the clean record does not rule out hidden moisture damage. Verify the 22 March 2023 fail-to-pass sequence with the selling dealer, since the same-day reversal with no defects recorded warrants confirmation it was not a documentation error. Otherwise the V60's history implies a lightly used, well-kept example with no recurring mechanical risks flagged.
