2019 Vauxhall Crossland 1.2L Petrol · DP69 THZ

The most recent MOT test conducted in October 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. Looking at the historical data, the vehicle demonstrates a stable maintenance trend, having passed every annual inspection since 2022 without any major mechanical failures or structural integrity issues. The absence of recurring failures suggests a vehicle that has been kept in a roadworthy condition, with the only noted concerns throughout its history being limited to consumable wear. With a recorded mileage of 49,125 miles over approximately seven years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 7,018 miles per year. This usage rate is considered typical for a car of this age and class, indicating a balanced duty cycle that avoids the risks associated with both excessive high-mileage wear on the drivetrain and the degradation caused by prolonged periods of standing. Mechanically, this suggests that components such as the clutch, engine mounts, and suspension are likely within their expected operational lifespan, provided the service intervals have been adhered to. A review of the MOT history reveals a recurring pattern of advisories regarding tyre wear, specifically noting wear on the edges of both the front and rear tyres in 2022 and 2024. This specific type of wear often indicates a misalignment of the wheel tracking or worn suspension bushes that allow the wheels to toe-in or toe-out. During a test drive, the buyer should pay close attention to whether the vehicle pulls to one side under light steering or if there is any vibration through the steering column. A physical inspection of the current tyre shoulders is essential to ensure that a professional four-wheel alignment has been performed to prevent premature replacement of new tyres. Given the vehicle is now seven years old, the buyer should verify the service history to confirm that calendar-based maintenance has been completed regardless of the moderate mileage. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of the brake discs for any significant lip or surface corrosion, and the 12V battery health should be checked if the car has been used primarily for short urban trips. It is also advisable to inspect the rubber suspension components for signs of perishing or cracking and to ensure that the engine oil and coolant have been refreshed according to the manufacturer's time-based intervals to prevent internal sludge buildup or corrosion.
