2007 Volvo S60: petrol or diesel?
Petrol, diesel and hybrid versions go wrong in different ways, so each has its own figures from the MOTs these cars had during 2023–2025. Pick the one you’re looking at: the fuel is on the logbook and in the car’s MOT history.
Petrol
59% pass first time (all 2007 cars: 57%)
Nothing stands out above the usual rate
509 MOTsSee the petrol guide ›
Diesel
60% pass first time (all 2007 cars: 57%)
Stands out: suspension arm bushes and joints 2×, anti-roll bar bushes and joints 4.7×, handbrake performance 3.7×
1,281 MOTsSee the diesel guide ›
Hybrid versions had too few MOTs for figures of their own, or weren’t sold.
