Our take on the Opel Crossland X

A 2023 Opel Crossland X typically advertises at €18,900 and a 2018 one at €9,750, so it loses roughly 12% of its value a year at that age. At the NCT, the 2018 and 2021 cars fail more often than other cars the same year, so a fresh NCT is worth paying a little more for. The 1.2 petrol is the most common engine (63% of those with a known engine), and it usually lasts around 300k km.

Common Opel Crossland X problems

Known weak spots to check before you buy, with typical Irish garage costs if the problem is there.

Automatic gearbox health · €300–€2,500

Make sure the gear changes are smooth when warm, check for a gearbox warning light and ask if the gearbox oil was ever changed.

Timing belt history · €350–€700

Ask when the timing belt and water pump were last done (usually every 160,000 km or 5–6 years). No proof = budget for it.
