AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2010 Volvo has 20 MOT tests on record with a 65% pass rate and 87,866 miles. While mileage is consistent, the high annual usage and repeated issues with steering, brakes, and suspension warrant a thorough inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, but the car shows high annual usage (12,338 miles/yr) compared to the UK average of 8,000 miles/yr, indicating more wear and tear.
Things to check
- Recurring major failures in steering (6 advisories, 1 failure) and brakes (4 advisories, 1 failure) across multiple tests.
- Persistent advisories for ball joint wear (flagged in 5 separate tests), indicating a chronic structural weakness.
- High annual mileage (12,338 miles/yr) compared to UK average (8,000 miles/yr), suggesting increased wear.
- Multiple major light failures (4 failures) and advisories for deteriorated registration plate (May 2023).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until March 2027, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine odometer readings.
- No recurring failures in the same system category (e.g., no repeated engine failures).
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) demonstrates a strong safety record for this model.
