2021 Vauxhall Mokka SRI NAV Premium Turbo 1.2L Petrol · KP71 ABO

The vehicle's recent MOT history shows a declining trend in mechanical condition, moving from a clean pass in March 2025 to a failure in March 2026. While the vehicle passed the retest on 13 March 2026 at 26,285 miles, the tester identified several emerging issues during the initial test on 12 March 2026. These included defects in the front windscreen wipers, the offside rear tyre, and the front brake discs. The failure also highlighted wear in the nearside front suspension, specifically a damaged anti-roll bar linkage dust cover and play in the suspension arm ball joint. The recorded mileage of 26,285 miles at the March 2026 test indicates a low-use profile for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,257 miles per year. The data shows a consistent upward progression in mileage, with 19,443 miles recorded in September 2024 and 21,349 miles in March 2025. This low annual mileage suggests the vehicle has not faced heavy long-distance motorway use, though the recent appearance of perishing rubber and pitted brake discs can sometimes indicate periods of inactivity or exposure to environmental elements without regular driving. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension components to ensure the ball joint play noted in March 2026 has been fully rectified and not merely masked. The pitting on the front brake discs suggests they may require replacement soon if the surface texture is uneven. Given the advisory regarding the offside rear tyre cracking or perishing, it is necessary to check the condition of all remaining tyres for age-related degradation, as low mileage does not prevent rubber from perishing over time. Finally, verify that the windscreen wipers provide clear visibility to ensure the previous failure was properly addressed.
