VAUXHALL MOKKA2015 · 1.6L Petrol

The Vauxhall Mokka presents as roadworthy following its most recent test, with a clean pass recorded on 2 September 2025 at 80,765 miles showing no defects or advisories. The maintenance trend is stable on paper, though the history reveals a peculiar pattern of same-day failures and passes that warrants scrutiny rather than reassurance. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical 7,342 miles per year for an eleven-year-old vehicle, rising from 63,635 miles at the September 2023 test to 74,288 miles in September 2024 and 80,765 miles by September 2025. The record is sparse, with only three annual tests logged and no advisories or defects ever raised across any entry. Such a clean sheet on a vehicle of this age is unusual and may reflect genuine care or, more likely, superficial test preparation given the failure pattern below. The MOT data shows the car failed on 1 September 2025 and again on 5 September 2024, both at identical mileages to the subsequent passes logged the very next test entry, with no defects recorded on either failure. This suggests administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults, but a buyer should not rely on the absence of advisories as proof of condition. In person, the buyer should commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, and underbody structural integrity for corrosion, since the MOT record offers no visibility of these components beyond a pass result. The lack of any recorded advisories across three years means wear on consumables such as tyres and wiper blades has gone undocumented, so physical verification of tread depth and rubber condition remains essential before purchase.
