2019 Vauxhall Crossland 1.2L Petrol · MW69 SDU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 4 June 2026 at 32,787 miles. The maintenance trend shows a recent shift from clean records to the emergence of mechanical wear. The tester flagged worn front suspension arm pins or bushes on both nearside and offside, along with rear bushes slightly lifting from their collars. While these did not result in a failure, they indicate that rubber components are beginning to degrade despite the low annual mileage. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,684 miles per year. Data shows consistent usage between tests, moving from 18,430 miles in November 2022 to 32,787 miles by June 2026. This low-frequency usage pattern suggests the car has been used for short trips, which often preserves the drivetrain and interior. However, long periods of sitting can sometimes lead to the corrosion of brake components and the hardening of rubber bushings, which aligns with the recent suspension advisories. A buyer should conduct a close physical inspection of the front suspension to assess the extent of the wishbone bush wear identified in the 2026 test. The history from November 2023 at 25,532 miles noted thin brake pads and pitted or scored discs on all wheels, indicating a major brake service was required at that time. It is essential to verify that these components were actually replaced and are currently in good condition. Check for any signs of surface rust on the chassis to ensure that the low mileage has not masked underlying structural corrosion caused by lack of use.
