2018 Volvo V60 2.0L Diesel · VO18 UBE

This vehicle passed its most recent MOT in April 2026, though it initially failed on a faulty registration plate lamp and an ineffective nearside windscreen wiper. These are minor, common wear-and-tear items that do not indicate a deeper mechanical problem. The most significant risk pattern appears in the April 2025 records. The car failed on a split offside outer drive shaft CV boot and an active engine management light, alongside worn rear tyres. While these were rectified to achieve a pass, the presence of a management light and a perished boot suggests a period where preventative maintenance may have been overlooked. Overall, the condition trend looks stable. After the more serious mechanical failures in 2025, the 2026 test showed no major defects, suggesting the previous issues were addressed and no new systemic failures have emerged. The recorded mileage of 83,998 miles is typical for an eight-year-old vehicle. This suggests a standard usage pattern, meaning the buyer should expect normal wear on drivetrain components, suspension, and brakes rather than the extreme wear associated with high mileage or the degradation caused by long periods of standing. When inspecting the car, you should first verify that the drive shaft CV boot was replaced rather than just patched.
