2021 Vauxhall Grandland X SRI NAV Turbo D 1.5L Diesel · DY71 OCU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent inspection indicates a minor shift toward reactive maintenance. In the test conducted on 29 March 2025, the Grandland passed despite the tester flagging a defective front windscreen wiper blade and noting corrosion on all brake discs. While these issues did not cause failure, the presence of surface rust on the discs suggests of inactivity consistent with low annual mileage rather than mechanical failure. The mileage data presents a significant discrepancy between recorded entries. In the test dated 27 January 2025, the vehicle recorded 33,973 miles, yet the subsequent test on 29 March 2025 showed a reading of only 21,003 miles. This reversal of 12,970 miles in just two months suggests a data entry error or odometer tampering. Aside from this anomaly, the average usage of approximately 4,200 miles per year is notably low, which typically reduces wear on drivetrain and suspension components. A buyer must verify the integrity of the braking system during a physical inspection. The reported corrosion on the discs in March 2025 is common in vehicles that sit for long periods, but it can lead to seized calipers or uneven pad wear if left unaddressed. You should check for binding brakes and ensure the disc surfaces are not heavily pitted. Given the inconsistent mileage figures, a thorough inspection of the tyres for flat spots or rubber degradation is also necessary when low-mileage vehicles remain stationary for extended intervals.
