2012 Volvo XC60 2.4L Diesel · RK62 YFZ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a consistent trend of neglect regarding consumable rubber. The most recent test in May 2026 at 121,165 miles passed, yet it once again flagged cracking and perishing on both rear tyres. While the car avoids major mechanical failures or structural defects, the recurring presence of tyre defects suggests the owner only addresses issues when they reach a failure threshold rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 14-year-old Volvo, averaging approximately 8,650 miles per year. Between May 2022 at 100,737 miles and May 2026 at 121,165 miles, the vehicle covered 20,428 miles, representing a steady usage rate of roughly 5,100 miles annually during that period. This indicates the car is not subjected to long periods of standing, which likely explains the age-related drying and cracking noted on the tyres despite the relatively low annual mileage. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of all four tyres, as the record shows a persistent history of age-related damage across multiple axles since 2023. Because the MOT history shows no suspension or brake failures, the focus should shift to checking for wear on rubber bushings and coil springs, which are common on the XC60 at this mileage. Inspect the undercarriage for signs of corrosion on the mounting points, as the records do not provide detail on the structural integrity of the chassis components beyond the basic MOT requirements.
