The 2018 Vauxhall Crossland passes its MOT more often than average—87% first-time pass rate versus the UK's 80%—which suggests decent overall reliability. However, nearly 22% of these vehicles have recorded dangerous defects at some point, a notably high figure that warrants a pre-purchase inspection focused on structural and safety components.
These cars have covered a modest 31,890 miles at median, which is typical for their age, and they average fewer than one failure per test cycle. The high advisory count of 7.5 per vehicle points to minor wear items and maintenance niggles rather than serious faults, so budget for regular servicing and consumables. Before committing to a used example, always request the full MOT history and have a mechanic check the brake system and suspension—the usual culprits in the advisory data.
The 2018 Vauxhall Crossland passes its MOT first time at roughly the UK average rate (87%) — solid but worth checking this vehicle's history carefully.
These stats describe 12,520 vehicles as a group. The specific vehicle you're looking at could be the one good example or the one outlier. Run its registration to find out.
