2005 Volvo XC70 2.4L Diesel · SW55 ABZ

The latest MOT, taken on 2 May 2022 at 157,450 miles, passed with no defects recorded. All previous MOTs from 2018 to 2021 also passed cleanly, showing a consistent, defect‑free record over five years. The vehicle’s mileage of 157,450 miles on a 21‑year‑old Volvo XC70 works out to roughly 7,500 miles per year, which is typical for a car of this age. The mileage does not suggest unusually heavy use or long periods of inactivity; it sits comfortably within the expected range for a vehicle of this type. Because every MOT has been clean, the trend appears stable rather than worsening. No recurring mechanical issues appear in the supplied history, and there is no evidence of a pattern of defects that would raise immediate red flags. A buyer should still perform a thorough inspection before purchase. Key checks include: Brake pads, discs and hydraulic system for wear or leaks. Suspension components (shocks, bushings, ball joints) for play or damage. Tires for tread depth, uneven wear and side‑wall integrity.
