2022 Volvo XC40 R-Design T4 Recharge Auto 1.5L Hybrid electric · YX22 YYO

The most recent MOT on 13 May 2026 at 87,455 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming the vehicle meets the current statutory roadworthiness criteria. The lack of recurring failures indicates a stable maintenance trend. From early 2022 to the latest test the car has amassed 87,455 miles, averaging roughly 21,800 miles per year. The mileage rose from 60,830 miles at the 1 April 2025 test to 87,455 miles by May 2026, a gain of 26,625 miles in just over twelve months, suggesting a relatively rapid accumulation that can accelerate wear on tyres, brake pads, and suspension components. A buyer should inspect tyre tread depth and uniformity, assess brake disc and pad condition, and feel for any play in the front and rear suspension bushes and coil springs. The tester recorded a defective front windscreen wiper blade at the April 2025 test; confirming the wiper system operates correctly will verify that the issue has been resolved. Given the plug‑in hybrid configuration, checking the high‑voltage battery health and inspecting for corrosion around the charging port are advisable, as is a visual survey for rust on wheel arches and the undercarriage to ensure structural integrity has not been compromised by the high mileage.
