AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2002 Volvo has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 26,222 miles. The low annual mileage for its age is a positive, but the lack of a current MOT is a significant concern.

The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual usage averaging 7,354 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent low of 4,062 miles in 2012.

Things to check

  • Vehicle has a 'Not valid' MOT status as of the report date, indicating it is currently not roadworthy.
  • Two major tyre failures (Feb 2011, Feb 2012) and recurring lighting advisories (Feb 2010, Feb 2011, Feb 2012) suggest past maintenance neglect.
  • The 24-year-old vehicle's 'Not valid' MOT status is a major red flag for immediate safety and legal compliance.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 7,354 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • No recurring major failures on critical systems like brakes or suspension, only minor advisories.
  • The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for 2017 indicates a strong safety record for its era.
