2016 Volvo XC60 2.4L Diesel · YR16 SVG

The vehicle remains currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from clean passes to emerging mechanical wear. In the most recent test in September 2025 at 90,497 miles, the car passed despite an advisory for two rear inner tyres worn close to the legal limit on the edge. This marks a departure from the previous three years between 2021 and 2024 where the vehicle presented with no recorded defects or advisories. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old Volvo, averaging approximately 9,050 miles per annum. Between September 2021 (50,112 miles) and September 2025 (90,497 miles), the vehicle covered 40,385 miles, showing a steady usage profile. The most recent interval saw 10,580 miles covered over the year, which aligns closely with the historical average. This regularity suggests a predictable usage cycle rather than long periods of stagnation, which often leads to the degradation of seals and rubber components. A buyer should prioritize an inspection of the rear suspension geometry due to the uneven wear noted on the rear inner tyres in the 2025 test. Edge wear typically indicates an misalignment issue or worn control arm bushes that may now require adjustment or replacement. While the vehicle maintained a clean record for years, the transition to 90,000 miles often marks the beginning of accelerated wear on heavy suspension components. Checking for corrosion on the underbody and the integrity of the shock absorbers is advisable, as the record does not explicitly flag structural rust to date.
