2017 Volvo V40 R-Design D2 2.0L Diesel · T7 SWE

The vehicle presents a clean and stable maintenance profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test on 16 May 2024 at 74,663 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows two previous consecutive passes in 2022 and 2023, suggesting a consistent standard of upkeep and no recurring issues with structural integrity or emissions. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical domestic usage pattern for a nine-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 8,296 miles per year on average. Looking at the specific intervals, the vehicle covered 12,869 miles between the February 2022 test and the April 2023 test, and then covered 22,700 miles between April 2023 and May 2024. This indicates a slight increase in annual mileage over the last two years, though it remains well within normal parameters for a diesel engine of this type. Because the MOT record is entirely free of advisories, there are no documented trends regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or tyre wear. While the digital record shows no failures, a physical inspection should still focus on common wear items for a Volvo of this age. You should specifically check the condition of the front coil springs and the underside for any signs of corrosion, as these are not always captured in a standard MOT if they do not present an immediate failure. The absence of historical advisories for binding calipers or exhaust emissions is a positive indicator of previous ownership care. Given the current mileage of 74,663, you should verify the service history to ensure oil changes have been performed regularly to protect the turbocharger and timing belt, as these mechanical components are not covered by the MOT testing regime.
