2021 Vauxhall Crossland Elite 1.2L Petrol · CW62 BOS

The latest MOT test conducted on 24 March 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. When reviewing the history since 2024, the maintenance trend appears very stable and positive. The only recorded issues were minor defects regarding the windscreen wiper blades in May 2024, which are standard consumable items. The fact that the two most recent inspections were completely clean suggests a vehicle that has been consistently maintained to a roadworthy standard. The vehicle has covered 68,224 miles over approximately five years, averaging roughly 13,645 miles per annum. This is considered high usage for this vehicle class. Such a high annual mileage rate typically accelerates the wear and tear of mechanical components and consumables. Prospective buyers should be aware that the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking systems have been subjected to more stress than a typical example of this age, meaning several key components may be approaching the end of their primary service life. Because the MOT history is remarkably clean, the physical inspection must focus on wear and tear that does not necessarily trigger a test failure. Given the high mileage, a thorough examination of the tyre tread depth and sidewall condition is essential, specifically looking for uneven wear patterns that could indicate wheel misalignment or worn suspension components. During a test drive, the buyer should listen for any clunks or knocks from the suspension bushes and coil springs, and feel for any vibration or shudder through the brake pedal, which would suggest warped brake discs or binding calipers. Furthermore, it is critical to verify the service history to ensure that oil changes and filter replacements have kept pace with the high mileage. The buyer should inspect the engine bay for any signs of fluid leaks and check the health of the 12V battery. While the MOT records are clear, the high usage suggests that components such as the alternator and water pump have been under significant load. Ensure that all calendar-based maintenance has been performed and check for any degradation of the engine mounts or auxiliary belts to ensure continued long-term reliability.
