2018 Vauxhall Grandland 1.2L Petrol · K18 TUL

The vehicle remains roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, reflecting a reactive than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test in September 2025 at 45,576 miles passed with a single advisory for a nearside rear tyre worn near the legal limit and showing edge wear. This indicates that while basic consumables are reaching the end of their life, the mechanical and structural components have not triggered failures in recent testing cycles. At 45,576 miles over eight years, the Grandland reflects significantly below average mileage, averaging approximately 5,700 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with intervals of roughly 6,000 miles between the annual MOT tests from 2021 through 2025. This low-use profile typically suggests less mechanical strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can sometimes lead to issues such as brake components corroding or rubber perishables beginning to perish if the vehicle sits for long periods between journeys. A buyer should focus specifically on the braking system during a physical inspection. The 2023 test at 34,434 miles flagged thin front brake pads and pitted or scored discs on both axles. While these were likely replaced shortly thereafter, the recurring mention of surface corrosion suggests the owner may wait until components are near failure before performing maintenance. The uneven edge wear noted on the nearside rear tyre also warrants a check of the wheel alignment and suspension geometry to ensure the bushes are not worn enough to cause premature scrubbing of new rubber.
