2018 VAUXHALL GRANDLAND1.2L PETROL

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in March 2026, but the report notes an offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit and an offside rear tyre with a damaged, cracking, or perishing sidewall. There is a clear and recurring pattern of tyre issues. Since 2023, every single MOT test has recorded at least one tyre that was worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edge. This suggests a consistent trend of tyres being run down to their minimum safety threshold before being replaced. The overall condition trend appears stable, but the latest entry introduces the issue of perishing rubber. This is a shift from simple tread wear to structural degradation of the tyre sidewall. The recorded mileage is very low for a vehicle of this age, averaging roughly 4,432 miles per year. While this typically implies less wear on the engine and drivetrain, the presence of perishing and cracking rubber often indicates that a car has spent long periods standing or that the tyres have aged beyond their effective lifespan regardless of the low mileage. The most important checks for a buyer are to inspect all four tyres for uneven wear or sidewall cracking and to verify if the wheels require alignment given the repeated notes of tyres being worn on the edge.
