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 20 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 35,100 miles. While mileage is consistent, the vehicle's age and repeated issues warrant a thorough inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,039 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, but annual usage has fluctuated significantly over its 17-year lifespan.
Things to check
- Oct 2025 MOT: Nearside Rear Coil Spring worn (ADVISORY) — indicates ongoing suspension wear.
- Oct 2025 MOT: Nearside Rear Brake Disc worn (ADVISORY) — suggests brakes are nearing replacement.
- Recurring Major Failures: Suspension (2019, 2023) and Lighting (2018, 2019, 2023) show systemic neglect.
- Consistent Low Annual Usage: 1,588–7,270 miles/year suggests periods of inactivity, potentially harming components.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent Mileage: No suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine usage.
- No Odometer Fraud: Mileage trajectory is linear and consistent, no anomalies detected.
- Euro NCAP 5 Stars: Excellent safety rating for a 2009 vehicle, demonstrating robust design.
