2013 Volvo XC90 2.4L Diesel · YP13 CDF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, as evidenced by the most recent MOT on 2025-07-11 at 93,595 miles, which passed without any advisories or failures beyond previously recorded issues. The recurring presence of worn front suspension arm pins or bushes—specifically on the offside front—has not escalated to excessive movement or structural failure, indicating consistent but gradual wear rather than sudden deterioration. The rear brake discs remain within acceptable limits despite being pitted or scored, suggesting regular monitoring and replacement planning has been followed. Mileage accumulation shows a steady average of approximately 7,200 miles per year, aligning closely with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle. There are no significant gaps in testing, with annual MOTs consistently completed around the same date each year, indicating reliable ownership and ongoing compliance. The progression from 70,210 miles in 2021 to 93,595 miles in 2025 reflects a linear increase of roughly 23,400 miles over four years, with no evidence of sudden spikes that might suggest misuse or neglect. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension system, particularly the offside lower arm bush and pin, as this component has shown persistent wear across five consecutive tests. The condition of the rear brake discs should also be verified, especially given their repeated mention; while still serviceable, scoring may indicate inadequate brake pad maintenance or driving habits. Additionally, the nearside front tyre was noted as worn close to the legal limit in 2022, so current tread depth on all tyres must be confirmed. No signs of structural corrosion or frame damage appear in the records, but a full underbody check is recommended to rule out hidden rust, particularly in areas prone to moisture exposure such as wheel arches and sills.
