This 2016 Volvo has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 26,272 miles. The car's low annual mileage for its age is a positive, but the past tyre issue and current brake wear need addressing.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 8,555 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating regular but not excessive use.
Things to check
- Dangerous Nearside Rear Tyre failure on 2021-05-17 indicates a past safety lapse.
- Offside Front Track rod end ball joint excessive play failure on 2021-05-17 points to prior suspension neglect.
- Offside Rear Brake pad(s) wearing thin advisory on 2025-06-15 suggests immediate replacement is needed.
Working in its favour

- No recurring major failures or dangerous defects since the 2021 tyre and steering issues were addressed.
