Should you buy a used Aixam Crossline?

The Aixam Crossline has an overall MOT pass rate of 75.1% across 3,121 real MOT tests — comfortably above the UK average, which puts it among the more reliable models on UK roads.

The most common failure point is steering rack gaiter split with 39 recorded occurrences. Check for this on any test drive or pre-purchase inspection.

A typical Aixam Crossline owner drives around 1,832 miles per year. If the car you're looking at is significantly above this, expect more wear on suspension, brakes and tyres. If it's well below, the vehicle may have been sitting unused — check for perished rubber, corroded discs and stale fluids.

In terms of longevity, most Aixam Crossline models stay on UK roads for around 19 years — a strong showing that suggests solid build quality and readily available parts. If you're buying one that's already approaching that window, the data suggests it has plenty of life left provided it's been maintained.

Before committing to a purchase, we recommend running a full vehicle history check on the specific car. This will reveal any outstanding finance, stolen markers, write-off history and mileage discrepancies that the seller may not disclose — and that the MOT data alone can't tell you.
