2013 Volvo XC60 2.4L Diesel · YA62 FVO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight shift toward neglecting consumable items. While the most recent test in August 2025 at 157,455 miles passed, the tester flagged both the nearside and offside front tyres as reaching the legal limit and showing uneven wear. This indicates that while the mechanical components are currently passing, the previous owner has recently deferred routine tyre maintenance until the point of failure or advisory status. At 157,455 miles over 13 years, this XC60 averages a high mileage of approximately 12,100 miles per year. The usage pattern appears consistent, with a gap of 3,883 miles recorded between July 2023 and August 2024, and another 2,890 miles between August 2024 and August 2025. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle sees regular motorway use, which typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and suspension compared to low-mileage city vehicles. A buyer should focus their inspection on the front suspension. The failure in July 2023 for perished front anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust covers on both sides suggests a vulnerability to perished rubber components in the steering assembly. Given the high mileage and the uneven tyre wear noted in 2025, a thorough check of the control arm bushes and shock joints is essential. The uneven edge wear on the front tyres may also indicate a tracking issue that requires professional alignment to prevent premature degradation of new rubber.
