2020 Vauxhall Crossland 1.2L Petrol · DL70 TBU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent testing data. The latest MOT conducted on 21 March 2025 at 71,626 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just one week prior at 71,573 miles. While the record does not specify the reason for the initial failure, the immediate rectification suggests a minor component adjustment or bulb replacement that was quickly addressed, indicating a proactive approach to maintaining basic legal operational standards. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage patterns for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 12,000 miles per annum. Between April 2024 test at 67,204 miles and the March 2025 test at 71,626 miles, the car covered 4,422 miles in nearly eleven months. This steady rate suggests regular use which is generally beneficial for the mechanical components as it helps to prevent seals from drying out and components from succumbing to the corrosion often associated with long periods of inactivity. Because the MOT history shows no recurring advisories or structural failures, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear items that fall outside the scope of the MOT test. A buyer should examine the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, and check the thickness of brake pads and discs for uneven wear. Given the mileage exceeds 70,000 miles, verifying the service history regarding fluid changes and checking for any minor oil leaks is essential, as the MOT record only confirms the safety-critical aspects of the engine and drivetrain.
