2018 Volvo XC60 Momentum T5 AWD Auto 2.0L Petrol · YX68 LJC

The 2018 Volvo XC60 remains roadworthy as of its most recent MOT on 2025-07-16 at 50,820 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows stability since the 2024-06-28 test, which also passed without issues. However, the vehicle experienced two consecutive failures in 2024 and 2023 at similar mileages (44,997–40,040 miles), though no specific defects were noted in those reports. The lack of recorded faults in the latest test suggests the car has been maintained to acceptable standards, but the prior failures indicate potential unresolved issues requiring scrutiny. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,352 miles annually. A notable gap exists between the 2023-09-06 tests, which recorded both a pass and a fail at identical mileages (40,040 miles), raising questions about data accuracy or procedural inconsistencies. The 2024-06-26 failure occurred just two days before a subsequent pass at 44,999 miles, implying possible remedial action. The vehicle’s mileage has increased steadily, with 5,823 miles added between 2024 and 2025, reflecting moderate usage but no extreme wear patterns. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The absence of brake-related defects in the latest test is reassuring, but the prior failures warrant checking for binding calipers or uneven brake disc wear. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as corrosion or panel damage could affect long-term reliability. While the MOT history lacks specific fault details, the recurring failures suggest the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection of mechanical and bodywork elements.
