Vauxhall Crossland 1.2 Turbo Ultimate SUV 5-door Petrol Manual

Description

I’ve been driving this Vauxhall Crossland Ultimate for a few years now and honestly, it’s one of the best little SUVs I’ve ever had. It’s in Power Orange, which is bold but not flashy — just a nice, confident colour. Registered in May 2022, it’s got a 1.2-litre turbo engine that puts out 130 horsepower, gets to 62 mph in about 9.5 seconds, and can hit 125 mph — not the fastest, but it’s got plenty of punch when you need it.

It’s manual, front-wheel drive, and gets around 49.6 mpg — which is actually pretty good for a small SUV. Five seats, plenty of boot space, and the interior feels roomy even on longer trips. I love the panoramic rear-view camera and the park assist — makes parking in tight spots a breeze. Also, it’s ULEZ compliant, so no issues in London or other city zones.

I’ve kept it well looked after, and the seats and dash are still in great shape. The safety features like belt pretensioners are solid too.

It’s based in Portsmouth, England, and I’m just looking to get rid of it after a few years of reliable use. I’ve had it through a few different jobs and long commutes — it’s proven itself.

I’m not selling it because I need the cash, just because I’ve found something else that fits my needs better. If you’re looking for a practical, slightly sporty SUV that doesn’t eat through your fuel, this one’s been a solid companion.

Price is £12,271.50 — which is fair given its age and condition, but I don’t expect anyone to jump in with a bid just because of the number.

WJ King Group is the company behind it — they’re a private group based in the South East with a big selection of Vauxhall, Peugeot, Kia, SEAT, Cupra, and Suzuki vehicles. I’ve had a few of their used cars over the years and they’ve always treated me well, with solid service and warranty support. I’ve seen them go the distance on a few models, and I trust their quality.

If you’re thinking about getting into something reliable and not too flashy, this one’s worth a look.
