AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Volvo has 16 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 28,544 miles. The 2020 service gap and a 2024 tyre advisory also warrant careful investigation.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal usage averaging 7,933 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a 2020 service gap is noted.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension and steering advisories (e.g., Aug 2023, Aug 2024) indicate ongoing wear.
- Offside Front Tyre worn close to legal limit (Aug 2024) signals immediate replacement is needed.
- Nearside Front Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn (Aug 2023) points to significant wear.
- 2020 MOT gap suggests a period of non-use or lack of maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until August 2026 provides immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, normal mileage for its age (7,933 mi/yr) suggests careful use.
- No major recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or emissions.
