2013 Volvo XC90 2.4L Diesel · SP63 NZK

The 2013 Volvo XC90 demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent January 2026 MOT at 98,930 miles recording a pass and no defects. Previous annual tests from 2023 to 2025 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. The single failed test in January 2023 at 78,345 miles is noted but recorded as having no defects, suggesting either a technical anomaly or a minor resolution. No recurring mechanical or structural concerns are evident from the MOT history, and the vehicle’s mileage aligns with typical usage for its age. The mileage progression shows steady accumulation, with 78,351 miles recorded in January 2023 and 98,930 miles in January 2026—a total of 20,579 miles over 36 months. This equates to approximately 5,772 miles per year, slightly below the 7,610 average calculated by the user. The absence of significant gaps or rapid mileage spikes suggests regular use without prolonged inactivity. The MOT records are clean, with no advisories or failures beyond the 2023 test, reinforcing the impression of routine upkeep. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components often degrade over time in older vehicles. The brake system, including calipers and discs, should also be checked for wear, given the car’s age. While the MOT history lacks specific faults, the 2023 failed test—though unexplained—warrants scrutiny of the exhaust system and emissions compliance. Corrosion in body panels, common in 13-year-old vehicles, should be assessed, as the MOT records do not explicitly confirm structural integrity. Overall, the vehicle appears well-maintained, but a professional inspection is advisable to verify hidden issues.
