Volvo Xc60 R Design D4 Auto (2019)
2019 Volvo Xc60 R Design D4 Auto
CarHunch analysed 467 real MOT records for the 2019 Volvo Xc60 R Design D4 Auto. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This Volvo XC60 R-Design D4 is significantly more reliable than the UK average, with an 88.6% first-time pass rate against the national 80%, though one concern is that 22.1% of these vehicles have recorded a dangerous defect at some point—above typical thresholds. The diesel engine appears to be holding up well relative to its age.
At just under 44,000 miles median mileage for a five-year-old car, these examples have been driven sensibly, and the low failure rate of 0.49 per vehicle reflects that careful ownership. Budget for routine advisories (averaging 3.5 per test), but before buying one, request the full MOT history to check whether any dangerous defects were actually fixed and how long ago they occurred.
What to check before buying a 2019 Volvo Xc60 R Design D4 Auto
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.
- ⚠️ 22.1% 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.
