Our Verdict
A solid option for those seeking a large diesel SUV, provided the recent MOT history is verified. The vehicle shows a consistent pattern of passing its tests with no recorded defects in the most recent two years.
When inspecting this specific 2.4L diesel XC90, focus on the service history to see how the timing belt and water pump intervals have been managed, as these are critical for this engine type. Although the MOT records show no defects in the last year, you should ask the seller for clarification regarding the two failures recorded on 22 November 2024 to understand what required immediate attention.
Check the condition of the suspension components and tyres, as these are common wear items on heavy SUVs like this. Given the mileage is just over 105,000, ensure that any major scheduled maintenance for this mileage bracket has been documented, as this can significantly affect the long-term value of the vehicle.
As a 2.4L diesel, the XC90 is designed for long-distance cruising rather than urban commuting, so expect fuel economy to be most efficient on motorways. Tax bands for 2010 models vary depending on specific CO2 emissions, so verify the exact rate for this registration.
Insurance groups for the XC90 tend to be mid-to-high due to the vehicle's size and engine capacity. Maintenance costs for a premium SUV of this age can be higher than a standard hatchback, particularly for specialist parts or repairs related to the diesel engine or heavy-duty suspension components.
While the most recent MOT in November 2025 recorded no defects, you should pay close attention to the underside of the vehicle for signs of corrosion or leaks. The two failures recorded in November 2024, despite having no specific defect text listed in this summary, suggest there were items that failed the initial test; ask for the specific details of those failures.
Inspect the electronic systems and any driver aids, as these are complex on the XC90. Additionally, check the diesel engine for any signs of oil weeping or unusual noises, which is standard practice for high-mileage Volvo diesel units.
This 2010 white Volvo XC90 is powered by a 2.4L diesel engine and has covered 105,815 miles as of its last MOT in November 2025. The MOT history shows a period of two failures in November 2024, though these were resolved on the same day to achieve a pass. Since then, the vehicle has maintained a clean record with no defects noted in the 2025 inspection.
