2020 Vauxhall Crossland X Griffin Turbo 1.2L Petrol · GF70 YTW

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate from the 2026-02-20 test at 43,966 miles, indicating a passing roadworthiness. However, the maintenance history reveals a distinct deterioration pattern: the most recent inspection in February 2026 was passed, while the previous test in February 2025 was also passed, suggesting the issue has resolved itself. This stability is supported by the fact that the vehicle has maintained a consistent mileage trajectory of approximately 7,328 miles per year since its 2020 model year, which is consistent with typical usage for a six-year-old car. The lack of gaps in the record indicates that the owner has maintained routine checks, but the data also shows that the most recent test was not preceded by a significant gap in mileage, suggesting the vehicle has been driven regularly without major wear accumulations. The technical assessment confirms that the vehicle's mechanical condition is stable overall, though specific components have shown signs of wear. The most critical finding is the Front Inner Brake disc, which was found to be worn in the February 2025 test at 42,008 miles. While the condition was noted as not excessively worn or scored, the failure to pass this test immediately following the previous one in February 2026 suggests that the brake system is not in a fully repaired state. This indicates that the brake discs are not completely fresh and may require replacement soon. The Front Brake pad was inspected in February 2024 and failed in February 2026, confirming that the pad is also not fully new and needs to be replaced. These findings imply that the owner has not performed a full replacement of the brake discs or pads since the February 2025 test, despite the fact that the most recent inspection in February 2026 was passed. Consequently, the buyer must inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and wear on critical components. The most urgent action is to replace the Front Inner Brake disc and Front Brake pad, as these failures indicate that the brake system is not in its final working condition. The vehicle also requires a full inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and binding calipers, as these components were not fully checked in the most recent February 2026 test. The buyer should verify that the exhaust emissions are within the legal limits and that the steering system is free from binding issues, as the most recent test in February 2026 flagged a child seat issue but did not reveal any structural defects in the steering or suspension. A final check is required for the tyre tread, as the most recent test in February 2026 did not record any defects, but the history suggests that basic upkeep may have been skipped in previous years.
