AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Volvo has 16 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 45,162 miles.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 9,363 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a 4-year MOT history gap from 2015-2019 is a major red flag.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre failures/advisories across 5+ tests (Sep 2020, Sep 2021, Sep 2022, Sep 2023, Sep 2025) indicate chronic maintenance neglect.
- Headlamp aim failure (Sep 2021) and subsequent advisories (Sep 2022, Sep 2023) suggest ongoing electrical issues.
- A 4-year MOT history gap from 2015-2019 (Sep 2015–Sep 2019) is highly unusual and requires immediate investigation.
- The 2014-09-11 MOT pass at 45,162 miles is unusually early for a 2011 vehicle, suggesting a potential re-registration or data anomaly.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-09-12, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, normal mileage trajectory (9,363 mi/yr) with no suspicious drops or spikes.
