Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the vehicle
Focus your negotiations on the items flagged in the August 2026 MOT. The 'severely deteriorated' offside front CV boot and the gearbox oil leak are the most pressing concerns and should be quoted for repair by a mechanic before purchase. Additionally, the worn suspension arm bushes on both the nearside and offside front will likely need replacing soon to maintain handling quality.
Verify the service history to see if the gearbox leak has been monitored or treated, as this is a specific point of concern for this individual vehicle. Ensure that the brake lever issue noted in 2025 has been fully resolved, as this can affect the efficiency of the handbrake.
Equipped with a 1199cc petrol engine, this Crossland is designed for efficiency in urban environments. You can expect moderate fuel costs and a relatively low annual road tax band typical for this engine size. Insurance groups for the Crossland are generally accessible, making it a cost-effective choice for families.
However, the estimated annual running costs are currently skewed higher due to the pending repairs identified in the MOT history. Budgeting for the CV boot replacement, suspension bush work, and gearbox investigation will be necessary in the first year of ownership.
Prioritise a physical inspection of the offside front outer drive shaft joint; the MOT history explicitly notes the CV boot is severely deteriorated. Check the underside of the engine bay for evidence of the recorded gearbox oil leak and inspect the front exhaust mounting, which was flagged as defective in August 2026.
Listen for knocks or clunks during low-speed manoeuvring, which may correlate with the worn suspension arm pin or bushes noted on both the nearside and offside front. Finally, check the condition of the rear brake discs, as these were flagged as pitted or scored in 2024 and are a known common failure point for this model aggregate.
This black 2018 Vauxhall Crossland has covered 81,921 miles, which is above the model average. The MOT history reveals a pattern of wear-and-tear advisories, with the most recent August 2026 test highlighting issues with the CV boot, gearbox oil leak, and suspension bushes. It represents a functional example of the model, though upcoming maintenance costs are evident in the data.
The Vauxhall Crossland has an average MOT pass rate of 87.1%, with common failures typically involving headlamps, brake discs, and wheel bearings.
