2018 Vauxhall Crossland 1.2L Petrol · BV68 KFY

The vehicle presents a generally roadworthy profile, showing a stable maintenance trend over its recorded history. The most recent test conducted in December 2025 at 19,259 miles was a pass, although it identified pitting and scoring on both front and rear brake discs. While these issues did not meet the threshold for failure, they indicate the onset of surface corrosion or material degradation common in vehicles with low annual mileage that sit stationary for extended periods. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,400 miles per year. Between December 2022 at 10,002 miles and December 2025 at 19,259 miles, the car covered only 9,257 miles. This consistent low usage suggests the vehicle has been used for short local trips, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components but often leads to the degradation of rubber-based parts and the oxidation of exposed metal surfaces, as seen in the latest MOT results. A buyer should focus specifically on the braking system during a physical inspection. The pitted discs noted in the 2025 test suggest that the brake components have not been used frequently enough to keep the surfaces clean, potentially leading to uneven wear on the pads. Ensure the calipers are not seized or binding excessively due to inactivity. Additionally, given the low mileage, check for cracking in tyre sidewalls and suspension bushings, as low-mileage cars often suffer from age-related perish rot rather than mileage-related wear if they are not moved regularly.
