This 2015 Volvo has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 41,046 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of brake issues and a recent advisory on the registration plate lamp warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 13,867 miles per year, with a notable 2022 service gap and a recent spike in 2024.
Things to check
- 2022 MOT gap: Vehicle was off-road or SORN for a full year, raising maintenance concerns.
- Brake system failures: Multiple DANGEROUS brake failures (2020, 2023) and recurring advisories (2025) indicate a pattern of neglect.
- Tyre condition: Major tyre failures (2020) and advisories (2020) suggest a history of poor maintenance.
- Registration plate lamp: Recurring MINOR defect (2025 advisory) suggests a persistent electrical issue.
Working in its favour
- Recent MOT pass: The vehicle has a valid MOT until March 2026, confirming current roadworthiness.
- Euro NCAP rating: 5-star safety rating (2017) indicates a well-protected vehicle for its era.
- Consistent mileage: Mileage has consistently increased, with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
- No major structural failures: No recurring major structural failures or corrosion issues are evident.
