2018 VAUXHALL GRANDLAND1.5L Diesel

The vehicle demonstrates an exceptionally stable maintenance record, having passed five consecutive annual MOT inspections without a single recorded defect or advisory. The most recent test conducted on 15 September 2025 at 36,366 miles confirms the car remains in a clean mechanical state. This consistent history indicates a high standard of preventative care and suggests that the previous owner addressed routine maintenance needs promptly, preventing minor consumable wear from escalating into failure points. The recorded mileage of 36,366 miles over an eight-year period averages approximately 4,500 miles per annum, which is significantly lower than the national average for a vehicle of this type. A notable jump in usage occurred between the 2021 test at 7,079 miles and the 2022 test at 17,339 miles, representing a period of higher activity compared to the more moderate accumulation seen in recent years. The absence of any recorded failures or advisories across the entire history is rare for a vehicle of this age and implies that the car has not suffered from the common neglect often associated with low-mileage examples that sit stationary for extended durations. Despite the clean MOT record, a physical inspection should focus on components that deteriorate through age rather than just active use. Since the vehicle has spent significant time at lower annual mileages, check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as these can develop when a car is not driven frequently enough to keep the friction surfaces polished. Inspect the suspension bushes and rubber gaiters for signs of perishing or cracking, as these materials degrade over time regardless of the distance covered. Confirm that the tyres show even wear patterns across the tread, as long periods of standing can occasionally lead to flat spots or sidewall degradation not always caught during a standard MOT test.
