Grandland X Sri Nav Turbo D: a strong MOT record by UK norms
Across 889 MOT tests, the Grandland X Sri Nav Turbo D returns 88.3% first-time pass — comfortably ahead of the UK fleet average. The single most-logged Major fail is tyre tread under the limit. Brake pads worn below 1.5 mm and a seriously damaged tyre round out the top three. Average tested mileage sits at 31,117, which is the lens to read those failure rankings through. If you own one and the next test is close, the ranked list below is a sensible pre-test checklist.
