2019 Volvo V60 Momentum + D3

CarHunch analysed 116 real MOT records for the 2019 Volvo V60 Momentum + D3. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This 2019 Volvo V60 D3 diesel passes its MOT first time at 84.8%, which is meaningfully better than the UK average of 80%, suggesting solid build quality and owner maintenance practices. However, 30.2% of vehicles in this cohort have recorded a dangerous defect at some point, which is significantly higher than typical and warrants closer inspection of the vehicle's service history before purchase.

At around 49,500 miles on the median, these cars are carrying typical mileage for their age, and the low average of 0.69 failures per vehicle indicates most get through testing without major issues. The 3.3 advisories per car suggest routine wear items (brakes, suspension, fluids) need attention, so budget for preventative maintenance and always request full service records when evaluating a used example.

What to check before buying a 2019 Volvo V60 Momentum + D3

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • ⚠️ 30.2% of these vehicles have had a dangerous defect recorded. Enter the reg below — the full MOT history will show exactly what was flagged and whether it was resolved.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
