2019 Vauxhall Grandland 1.2L Petrol · FM19 DXU

The Vauxhall Grandland presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 September 2025 at 53,525 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following a same-day failure that listed no defects, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in October 2024 at 48,478 miles and May 2024 at 44,942 miles also passed clean. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or escalating wear across its five-year MOT span. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,646 miles, typical for a 2019 registered vehicle now seven years old. The record moves from 34,626 miles in May 2023 to 44,942 miles by May 2024, then 48,478 miles in October 2024, and 53,525 miles by September 2025. Gaps between tests are short and accumulation is steady, with no sudden jumps that would imply heavy commercial use or neglected standing periods. The clean slip history gives little cause to suspect skipped consumable replacement, though absence of advisories means worn tyres or brake discs were not flagged at test thresholds. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness, as MOT passes with no defects do not confirm component life remaining beyond the pass date. The same-day fail and pass in September 2025 warrants a check of the V5C and test certificate to confirm no suppressed defect or clerical error. Given the low yearly use, examine underbody for corrosion from moisture ingress during idle periods. No structural integrity concerns or emissions failures appear in the official record. The Grandland's history implies a careful keeper who met test deadlines, but pre-purchase scrutiny of tyre tread depth and binding calipers remains sound practice on any used SUV of this age.
