2021 Vauxhall Grandland X Griffin ED T D 1.5L Diesel · LJ21 JJC

The vehicle's most recent MOT history shows a worsening trend in consumable component condition. While the test on 22 May 2026 resulted in a pass, this followed a significant failure on 21 May 2026. That failure included a dangerous defect regarding the offside front tyre tread depth falling below 1.6mm, alongside major defects for cuts in both the nearside rear and offside front outer tyres. The tester also identified significantly worn inner brake discs on both the nearside and offside front. The vehicle has covered 26,370 miles over its five-year lifespan, averaging approximately 5,274 miles per year. This low annual mileage is consistent with the recorded tests, though the progression of tyre defects suggests specific usage patterns or potential neglect of basic maintenance. The data shows a clear escalation from the 11 June 2024 test, where the nearside and offside front tyres only received advisories for cuts, to the 2026 failure where those same components reached critical thresholds. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system and tyre condition. The 2026 failure specifically flagged worn front brake discs, so checking the remaining thickness and surface condition of both front discs and pads is necessary. Given the repeated issues with tyre sidewall integrity and tread depth, the current state of all four tyres should be verified for cuts, bulges, or uneven wear. The recurrence of tyre-related defects across the 2024 advisory and the 2026 failure indicates a pattern of wear that requires close monitoring. While the vehicle passed the most recent test without defects, the rapid deterioration of tyres and brake discs between 2024 and 2026 suggests that maintenance of these consumable items has been intermittent. buying_score: 55 risk_level: Medium.
