This 2008 Volvo has 24 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 39,658 miles. The mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, showing significant drops in annual usage, which is a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
The mileage shows a significant drop from 108,653 miles in Jan 2020 to 115,813 miles in Feb 2021, indicating a possible odometer rollback.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Tyres worn close to legal limit (Jan 2020) — immediate safety risk.
- DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (Jan 2022) — critical safety component.
- DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (Jan 2023) — structural integrity.
- Recurring dangerous defects: Tyres (Jan 2020, Jan 2024), Brakes (Jan 2022), Suspension (Jan 2023).
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- MOT currently valid until 2027-02-02, indicating recent pass.
- No recurring failures on the same system (e.g., no repeated brake failures).
- Consistent annual mileage (9,008 miles/year) for its age.
