2016 VAUXHALL MOKKA1.4L Petrol

The 2016 Vauxhall Mokka remains roadworthy. The most recent MOT on 1 September 2025 at 26,260 miles passed without defects, and every test since 13 August 2021 recorded no faults. This consistent record indicates a stable maintenance trend, with no emerging mechanical issues on the surface. Mileage growth has been modest over the vehicle’s ten‑year life. From 14,867 miles in August 2021 to 16,755 miles in August 2022, the car accumulated roughly 1,900 miles per year. The next two years saw similar rates—18,108 miles in August 2023 and 20,926 miles in September 2024—before a noticeable uptick to 26,260 miles by September 2025, an increase of 4,334 miles in one year. The sudden rise could reflect a period of more frequent use, but the overall mileage remains low for the vehicle’s age, suggesting limited wear on consumables and major components. When inspecting the car in person, focus on the items routinely checked in MOTs. Verify that the tyre tread depth meets legal limits and that the tyres are free from side‑wall damage. Inspect the brake discs and pads for uniform wear and check the brake fluid level and condition. Examine the suspension bushings, shock absorbers, and steering linkages for any signs of wear or leakage. Look for corrosion on the chassis, especially at the wheel arches and undercarriage, and confirm that the exhaust system is intact and not leaking. Finally, ensure that all lights, indicators, and safety devices are operational, and that the battery and engine coolant are at appropriate levels. A thorough check of these components will confirm the vehicle’s continued roadworthiness and help identify any hidden wear that the MOT record does not capture.
