2022 Volvo XC90 R-Design B5 Mhev AWD Auto 2.0L Electric diesel · X7 SAW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a successful MOT test on June 8, 2026, at 40,735 miles. While the car passed without major defects, the tester identified a minor advisory regarding the nearside rear tyre showing slight damage or perishing. This indicates a minor consumable issue rather than a mechanical failure, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to operational standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical UK usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,200 miles per annum. Between the June 2025 test at 33,409 miles and the recent de facto June 2026 test, the car covered 7,326 miles in just twelve months. This regular accumulation suggests the vehicle is used consistently rather than sitting for long periods, which is generally beneficial for the health of the seals, battery, and mild-hybrid system on this Volvo. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the nearside rear tyre to determine if the cracking is surface-level or requires immediate replacement. Given the lack of recorded defects in the 2025 test, the structural integrity and braking components appear to be in good condition. However, as this is a heavy SUV, a manual check of the suspension bushes and brake pad thickness remains advisable to ensure that no uneven wear has developed since the last official inspection.
