2019 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · DW68 ACO

A trend of emerging wear-and-tear advisories defines the recent history of this vehicle, following an initially clean record. While it passed its most recent inspection on 12 January 2026, the data shows a progression of defects involving consumables and rubber components, shifting from thin brake pads in 2024 to worn tyres in 2025, and most recently a deteriorated suspension ball joint dust cover and perishing rubber on the offside rear tyre. The recorded mileage of 47,658 miles over approximately seven years represents a typical annual average of roughly 6,808 miles. This usage pattern suggests the vehicle has been used regularly without excessive mileage or prolonged periods of inactivity. Mechanically, this means the wear on the engine, gearbox, and suspension is consistent with its age, though it is now entering a phase where original rubber seals and suspension linkages typically require replacement. Immediate attention is required for the offside front suspension arm ball joint, where the dust cover is recorded as severely deteriorated. A failed dust cover allows grit and moisture to enter the joint, which can lead to rapid mechanical failure. During a test drive, the buyer should listen for any knocking or clicking sounds when navigating roundabouts or driving over speed bumps, and feel for any unusual vagueness in the steering response. The tyre and braking history indicates a need for a thorough physical audit. The offside rear tyre is specifically flagged for cracking and perishing, while previous entries noted front tyres worn close to the legal limit. The buyer should inspect all sidewalls for weather-checking and verify that the brake pads, which were noted as wearing thin in January 2024, have been replaced. Any vibration or judder through the brake pedal during deceleration should be noted as a potential sign of further wear or disc distortion.
