2018 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · PN18 AEC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its consistent pass record, though the most recent MOT on 10 March 2026 at 29,933 miles indicates the onset of mechanical wear. While the vehicle has passed every annual test since 2021, the latest inspection introduced several advisories regarding the braking system and exhaust. The transition from a clean sheet in 2024 to multiple advisories in 2026 suggests a shift from negligible wear to more active maintenance requirements. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,742 miles per year. The records show a steady, albeit slow, increase in usage, moving from 1,781 miles in 2021 to 29,933 miles in 2026. This pattern suggests the car has likely spent significant periods stationary or was used for very short, infrequent journeys. While low mileage reduces drivetrain wear, it can sometimes lead to issues with rubber components or seals that have not been regularly exercised, though the MOT history does not explicitly flag such failures yet. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and the exhaust assembly. The March 2026 test flagged thin rear brake pads and a worn nearside rear brake disc, which will require replacement in the near future. The report also noted a minor leak in the front exhaust, which could indicate a failing gasket or a small hole in the manifold/pipework. Given the 2025 advisory regarding front tyres being worn on the edges, a buyer should also check the wheel alignment and suspension bushes to ensure the vehicle is tracking correctly.
