2017 Vauxhall Crossland 1.2L Petrol · FH17 DYB

The 2017 Vauxhall Crossland presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 June 2025 at 26,687 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of passes since the first entry in July 2021. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the five-year DVSA history, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work at any annual examination. Annual mileage sits well below typical use for a nine-year-old car. The record shows 12,981 miles at the 6 July 2021 test, rising to 15,661 by 4 July 2022, 19,008 by 7 July 2023, 22,916 by 11 July 2024, and 26,687 by 24 June 2025. That equates to roughly 3,000 miles per year with no gaps or sudden accumulation. The consistently low figures and clean sheets suggest light, steady private use rather than fleet or high-load duty, though extended standing periods common to low-mileage cars can allow corrosion or perished rubber components to develop unseen. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills, subframe, and suspension mounting points given the age and likely periods of inactivity. The MOT record flags no worn suspension bushes, coil spring fractures, or binding brake calipers, yet test passes with zero advisories do not certify component condition between tests. Check brake disc faces for rust pitting from disuse and verify tyre sidewalls for cracking given the low annual rotation. The absence of any recorded exhaust emissions failures or structural integrity concerns is a positive signal of prior owner care. Given the sparse but clean history, a pre-purchase inspection remains warranted to confirm the underside and consumables match the paper record before completion.
