2016 Volvo XC60 2.0L Diesel · RX16 VPP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a recent pass on 25 June 2026 at 149,863 miles. While the most recent test flagged a minor non-compliance regarding a nearside washer jet, the vehicle has maintained a clean pass record for the previous four consecutive years. This suggests a consistent level of upkeep, as the history shows no recurring mechanical or structural failures since the 2022 failure. The mileage indicates heavy usage, averaging approximately 15,000 miles per year over its ten-year lifespan. A significant mileage jump occurred between August 2022 and June 2023, where the vehicle covered over 13,000 miles in ten months. There is a notable discrepancy in the 2022 failure record which lists 207,434 miles, whereas the surrounding tests show a much lower trajectory. Assuming the 2022 mileage figure is a clerical error and the 149,863 current reading is correct, the vehicle has been driven consistently, which typically implies regular mechanical exercise rather than long periods of standing. The MOT history highlights minor consumable wear rather than serious mechanical degradation. The tester identified a worn offside front brake disc in May 2024 at 145,295 miles, which is a standard wear item for a vehicle with this mileage. The 2022 failure involved several minor electrical and tyre issues, including an inoperative registration plate lamp and a worn offside rear inner tyre, which suggests a period of neglected basic maintenance during that time. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and suspension components. Given the high mileage and the previous advisory on the front brake disc, checking the remaining thickness of the discs and the condition of the pads is necessary. The history also shows a past issue with windscreen wipers and washer jets; testing these, along with checking the condition of all wiper blades and the integrity of the windscreen, will ensure these minor electrical and visibility faults remain resolved.
