2021 Vauxhall Crossland Elite Edition Turbo 1.2L Petrol · KT71 EOL

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean MOT pass in December 2025 at 49,558 miles. This recent result shows a trend of marked improvement following a mechanical failure in the previous year. The absence of any advisories in the most recent test indicates that the previous owner addressed the outstanding defects and maintained the vehicle to a passing standard since. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. A significant interval of 13,097 miles recorded between the December 2024 and December 2025 tests suggests regular road use rather than long periods of standing. This level of consistent mileage is generally beneficial for mechanical components as it prevents seals from drying out and brakes from seizing, though it places expected wear on consumable items like the braking and suspension systems. The failure in December 2024 at 36,461 miles highlights a period of neglect regarding basic consumable maintenance. The tester flagged both nearside and offside rear tyres for being below the legal 1.6mm limit, alongside thin front brake pads and discs showing excessive wear. While these issues appear to have been rectified given the subsequent pass, a buyer should personally verify the remaining life of the tyres and inspect the front braking assembly to ensure quality parts were used during the repair process. A physical inspection of the front suspension bushes for uneven wear is also advisable, as the record does not explicitly detail the state of these components beyond the braking system.
