2022 Volvo XC40 + T4 Recharge Auto 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · SO72 NAV

The Volvo XC40 T4 Recharge presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent DVSA test on 20 January 2026 at 30,195 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior test on 5 December 2025 at 30,114 miles also passed clean. The absence of any advisories across both examinations indicates the vehicle entered 2026 in sound mechanical condition. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a four-year-old vehicle. The record shows 30,195 miles on 20 January 2026 against 30,114 miles on 5 December 2025, a mere 81 miles across roughly seven weeks. Annualised, this equates to around 7,549 miles per year, reflecting light use with no rapid accumulation or standing gaps evident in the supplied data. The sparse two-entry history offers limited longitudinal insight but shows no warning signs. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the clean record. The plug-in hybrid drivetrain and associated high-voltage battery warrant diagnostic scrutiny beyond MOT scope, as the test does not assess battery degradation or charging function. Suspension bushes, brake disc wear, and underbody corrosion should be visually checked given the car's low annual mileage, which can mask intermittent issues through limited thermal cycling of components. Given the fault-free history, no recurring mechanical faults or structural concerns require targeted follow-up from prior advisories. The previous keeper appears to have maintained the vehicle to pass standard, though the thin test history means a pre-purchase inspection remains prudent for consumables such as tyres, wiper blades, and fluid condition not captured in the MOT dataset.
