2018 Vauxhall Grandland 1.2L Petrol · DP67 CUX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a worsening trend regarding reactive brake component replacement. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 59,649 miles passed, the tester flagged the front brake discs as worn. This follows a pattern of deferred maintenance seen in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the previous owners only address braking components once they approach the failure threshold rather than performing proactive preventative replacements. The mileage profile is consistent with typical low-use patterns, averaging approximately 7,456 miles per year. There is a notable gap in testing frequency between January 2022 and April 2022, where the vehicle covered only 2,433 miles in three months. Since the April 2023 test, the car has covered roughly 6,700 miles annually, indicating steady use. This low annual mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine but can sometimes lead to corrosion on brake discs if the vehicle is left stationary for extended periods. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system and suspension. The recurring reports of pitting and scoring on the nearside rear brake discs across 2022 and 2024, followed by the 2025 warning on the front discs, suggest the assembly may be nearing the end of its effective life. Furthermore, the offside front anti-roll bar linkage identified with play in 2022 should be re-checked to ensure it has not developed significant clearance over time. The uneven wear noted on the nearside front tyre in 2024 also suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent premature future tyre degradation.
