AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2017 Volvo has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 35,657 miles. While recent failures were addressed, the repeated tyre issues and high annual usage warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle exhibits high annual usage, averaging 12,481 miles per year, significantly above the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or inconsistencies.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre failures (Dec 2022, Jan 2025, Jan 2026) indicate a persistent wear issue.
- High annual mileage (12,481 mi/yr) for a 2017 vehicle suggests more wear and tear.
- Three DANGEROUS tyre defects (Jun 2021, Jan 2025, Jan 2026) highlight a recurring safety concern.
- A 2023 service gap is noted, suggesting a period of unrecorded maintenance or off-road use.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until January 2027 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or suspension.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
