2019 Vauxhall Grandland 1.5L Diesel · FM19 DZB

The Vauxhall Grandland presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 6 June 2025 at 33,399 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across its recorded history. The most recent test showed no defects, and the only blemish was a failed test on 3 June 2025 at 33,397 miles that recorded no defects, suggesting an administrative or minor non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault-driven failure. Across five years of MOT entries the vehicle avoided any recorded advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions. The mileage pattern is irregular for a seven-year-old vehicle. In March 2023 the odometer read 20,373 miles, then jumped to 41,376 miles by April 2024, an annual gain of over 21,000 miles that signals intensive use in that single year. By June 2025 the reading had fallen to 33,399 miles, meaning roughly 8,000 miles were removed or the car stood idle and was later corrected; either way the low 4,771-mile yearly average hides a period of heavy driving. Such a profile implies the Grandland spent stretches parked, then covered long distances, a cycle that can age seals and tyres through standing while stressing drivetrain parts under load. A buyer should still inspect the vehicle in person despite the clean record. The 2024 high-mileage spell warrants a check of suspension arms, coil springs, and brake calipers for fatigue not yet caught by testers. Confirm the true odometer integrity given the 2023 to 2024 surge and 2025 drop, and examine underneath for structural rust where moisture may have acted during idle months. The absent advisories do not exempt the car from wear on consumables like wiper blades and tyres that a visual check must verify.
