This 2016 Volvo has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 19,772 miles. The recurring tyre issues and a fractured coil spring are notable wear items.
The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 41,102 miles over 10 years, significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, suggesting potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 41,102 miles over 10 years (Jul 2019: 19,772 mi).
- Recurring tyre failures: Nearside Rear Tyre tear (Aug 2022) and Nearside Front Tyre cut (Aug 2021).
- Fractured Offside Front Coil Spring (Aug 2023 failure) indicates potential future suspension costs.
- Dangerous Nearside Rear Tyre tear (Aug 2022 failure) highlights a critical safety concern.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until August 2026, indicating current roadworthiness and no immediate retest.
- No recurring major system failures (e.g., brakes, steering) across its history.
- Consistent, albeit low, annual mileage suggests a single owner or careful use.
- Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a very safe vehicle.
