AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Volvo has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 10,273 miles. The low annual mileage for its age is a significant concern.
The vehicle shows very low annual usage, averaging only 5,574 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year.
Things to check
- Recurring steering rack advisories (2026) suggest an ongoing issue.
- Recurring tyre advisories (2026) indicate a pattern of wear.
- Low annual mileage (5,574 mi/yr) for a 2016 vehicle is a significant concern.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until April 2027 provides immediate peace of mind.
- No major structural failures or dangerous defects are recorded.
- Consistent, albeit low, mileage trajectory over its lifespan.
