AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2018 Volvo has 6 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 5,677 miles. While it has a clean recent MOT pass, the low mileage and recurring tyre issues warrant careful investigation.
The vehicle shows very low usage averaging 2,746 miles/year, with a significant 8,514-mile jump between July 2024 and July 2025, raising odometer integrity concerns.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 2,746 miles/year (Jul 2025) — potential odometer fraud.
- Mileage anomaly: 8,514-mile jump between Jul 2024 (12,309 mi) and Jul 2025 (20,823 mi) — inconsistent usage.
- Recurring tyre advisories: 7 advisories across 3 tests (Jul 2023, Jul 2024, Jul 2025) — indicates chronic wear.
- First MOT failure on 2023-07-28 for windscreen wiper and tyre damage — owner had to retest same day.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
- Valid MOT until 2026-07-30 — no immediate retesting required.
- No major structural failures recorded in MOT history.
- Consistent annual mileage increases (pre-2025) despite low overall numbers.
