What this car costs to run
Modelled over 7,100 miles a year (DfT National Travel Survey, England). Ranges, not quotes — a figure marked exact is set by law for this car; everything else is an estimate.
- Vehicle tax (VED)exactHistoric vehicle class (40+ years) — VED exempt (owner must apply)
- £0
- FuelThe listing does not give the engine size, so fuel is left out rather than guessed
- Not estimated
- Insurance (UK average)The UK average premium actually paid for comprehensive cover, £566 in Q2 2026 (ABI) — an average across every driver, postcode and car, not a quote for this one. Yours turns on your age, postcode and record and on the car’s insurance group. A 17–20-year-old new driver typically pays more than this average: see our guide to the cheapest cars to insure as a new driver, or the ABI figures
- £566
- ServicingFrom a minor service (£270–£430) to a major one (£520–£900) on a Volvo, from Autoza's own servicing estimates by make, not survey data. Routine servicing only — excludes repairs and tyres
- £250–£900
- MOT testFirst registered more than 40 years ago, so it does not need an MOT unless it has been substantially changed in the last 30 years (GOV.UK). Owners can still choose to test it
- Not required
- Total of the figures aboveLeaves out fuel, which we could not estimate for this car, so the real yearly cost is higher
- £800–£1,500
