2008 Volvo S60 SE D 163 E4 2.4L Diesel · UEZ 2774

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the latest available MOT data. The most recent test conducted on 25 March 2026 at 174,069 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets all legal and safety requirements. This follows a period of clean passes in 2022 and 2024, suggesting that the current owner is proactive in addressing mechanical issues before they result in test failures. The mileage pattern remains consistent with the vehicle's eighteen-year age, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 15,815 miles covered between November 2024 and March 2026, which represents a higher rate of usage compared to the previous interval. However, the period between the November 2023 failure and the subsequent re-test pass shows only 52 miles driven, confirming that the failure was likely a minor consumable item, such as a bulb or wiper blade, that was immediately rectified. While the recent history is clean of advisories, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on the high-wear components typical of a high-mileage Volvo diesel of this era. Given the 174,000-mile mark, examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perished rubber or stress fractures. The buyer should also check for corrosion on the brake lines and the integrity of the exhaust system for leaks, as the MOT does not always capture surface degradation until it reaches a structural failure threshold.
