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 8 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 40,394 miles. While it has a recent clean MOT pass, the pattern of wear suggests significant upcoming maintenance costs.
The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 16,487 miles per year, with a notable spike in recent years (e.g., 23,167 miles in 2017-2018), which is above the UK average of 8,000 miles.
Things to check
- Recurring brake failures (2015, 2016) and high mileage suggest heavy use and accelerated wear.
- Multiple tyre failures (2014, 2015, 2016) and advisories indicate a history of poor maintenance.
- The 2018-03-24 MOT pass was only valid until 2019-03-31, meaning it has been driving without a valid MOT for over a year.
Working in its favour
- The vehicle has a recent clean MOT pass from 2018-03-24, indicating it was roadworthy at that time.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies, as readings are consistent and plausible.
- The 2017 Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars indicates a strong safety record for this model.
- The 1.6L diesel engine is known for its reliability and fuel efficiency, making it a good choice for long journeys.
