Our Verdict
A highly attractive option for buyers seeking a low-mileage crossover. The consistent MOT pass record without defects suggests a vehicle that has met basic regulatory standards throughout its life.
While the MOT history shows no recorded defects, you should still request a full service history to confirm that oil changes and mechanical inspections have been carried out between MOT tests. Since the vehicle has been driven relatively low annual distances, check for signs of age-related wear on the tyres or battery, as infrequent use can sometimes lead to flat spots or discharge issues.
When negotiating, ask if the manufacturer's scheduled maintenance has been completed, particularly for a petrol engine of this displacement. Because the MOTs have been passed without issue, your primary focus should be on the documented service intervals rather than the results of the annual roadworthiness tests.
The 1199cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing it in a relatively low insurance group and a favourable tax band. Expect moderate fuel economy suitable for both urban and motorway driving.
Maintenance costs for this model are generally aligned with mainstream petrol crossovers. You should budget for standard consumables like brake pads, tyres, and oil changes. An estimated annual running cost for this vehicle is expected to be manageable for most households.
Inspect the vehicle's exterior and interior for any signs of wear that might not be captured by an MOT, such as upholstery condition or minor bodywork scratches. Although the MOT history from 2022 to 2025 shows zero defects, always check the tyre tread depth and condition, as low-mileage cars can sometimes have older rubber that is nearing the end of its life despite having plenty of tread.
Pay close attention to the electronic systems and infotainment, as these are common areas of interest in modern crossovers. Ensure all lights and indicators are functioning correctly, even though they have passed previous inspections without issue.
This 2018 Vauxhall Grandland is a low-mileage example, having covered just 27,155 miles in approximately eight years. The MOT history is notably clean, with four consecutive passes since 2022 showing no recorded defects or failures. Given its 1.2L petrol engine and grey exterior, it presents as a practical, modern family vehicle with significantly lower usage than the typical UK average for its age.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Vauxhall Grandland to provide a statistical reliability overview.
