Our Verdict
A strong candidate for buyers seeking a
Given the low mileage for a 2018 diesel, you should verify that the vehicle has been used for more than just short urban trips to prevent issues with the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). Check the service history specifically for oil change intervals, as diesel engines require consistent maintenance to remain reliable.
When inspecting this specific red Grandland, look for any signs of uneven tyre wear, as the 2022 MOT highlighted multiple tyres being worn close to the legal limit. Ensure the recent MOT passes reflect a vehicle that has had its consumables updated since those 2022 advisories.
As a 1.6L diesel, this Grandland is designed for efficiency on longer journeys. You can expect competitive fuel economy, though actual costs will depend on your driving style and load.
Tax and insurance groups for this model are typically moderate, making it a practical choice for families. Expect maintenance costs to be standard for a mid-sized SUV, with typical items including tyre replacements and brake servicing. Estimated annual running costs are approximately £1,100-£1,400, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance.
Focus your inspection on the tyres and suspension components. The 2022 MOT record noted three tyres (nearside rear, offside front, and offside rear) were worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edges, so check that the current set is in good condition and has even tread.
Additionally, while this specific vehicle has no recorded failures for common model issues like windscreen wipers, wheel bearings, or anti-roll bars, these are the top failure reasons for the Grandland aggregate data. It is worth testing the wipers and checking for any knocks or rattles from the suspension during a test drive.
This 2018 Vauxhall Grandland is a low-mileage example, having covered approximately 33,830 miles since its first registration in July 2018. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passes, with the most recent three tests recording no defects. While there were tyre-related issues noted in 2022, the vehicle has since maintained a clean record.
The Grandland shows an average MOT pass rate of 87.5% across 36,020 analysed vehicles, with common failures involving wipers, bearings, and anti-roll bars.
