2022 Vauxhall Crossland Elite Edition Trbo A 1.2L Petrol · FT71 AHJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 17 January 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the transition from a clean sheet in 2025 to advisory entries in 2026 indicates a shift. While the vehicle passed without failures, the appearance of tyre defects suggests the beginning of age-related degradation despite the low use. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,293 miles per year. Between the January 2025 test at 6,796 miles and the January 2026 test at 9,173 miles, the car covered only 2,377 miles. This low usage suggests the engine and suspension have faced minimal stress, but long periods of standing can lead to the specific issues of rubber components and oxidation on brake surfaces. A buyer should specifically inspect the condition of the tyres, as the January 2026 test flagged cracking and perishing on both the nearside and offside front tyres. This is a common symptom of dry rot when age exceeds mileage. Given the low mileage, it is also vital to check the brake discs for corrosion and ensure the calipers are not seized, as infrequent use often prevents rust from being cleared away from the friction surfaces.
