Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Vauxhall Grandland presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 25 November 2025 at 60,574 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle cleared with no defects recorded at that test. Prior to this, the history shows two paired fail-and-pass cycles on consecutive days in August and November 2025, yet neither failure listed any defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. Recorded mileage sits at 60,574 against an eight-year-old vehicle, equating to roughly 7,572 miles per year and reflecting typical use for the age. The jump from 45,456 miles at the 19 August 2024 test to 57,771 miles by 11 August 2025 shows about 12,315 miles covered in that year, above the annual average but not excessive. A further 2,803 miles accrued between August and November 2025, keeping accumulation steady. The sparse record with only three test years logged gives limited visibility, though all passes and the defect-free entries suggest no neglected consumables or structural concerns were raised. Given the absence of any advisories or recorded defects across the full MOT sequence, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion, as these items receive no comment in a clean test but degrade with time. The same-day fail-and-pass anomalies in 2025 warrant a check of the V5C and test certificate to confirm no suppressed fault data exists. Verify service history alongside the low defect record before purchase.
