2013 Vauxhall Mokka 1.7L Diesel · RE51 ANR

The 2025‑10‑02 MOT at 116,918 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the DVSA roadworthiness standards. The recent pass follows a 2025‑10‑01 failure at the same mileage, showing that any minor issue was rectified before the final test. The mileage has risen from 103,287 miles in September 2023 to 116,918 miles by October 2025, an increase of 13,631 miles over roughly 29 months, or about 4,700 miles per year, which aligns with the typical 8,994 miles per year for a 13‑year‑old vehicle. The only gap in the record is the two tests on 28 and 29 September 2023 that show identical mileage, suggesting a possible duplicate entry rather than a mileage jump. The 2023‑09‑28 failure flagged binding rear brakes, indicating that the brake calipers or discs may have been marginal and were corrected before the subsequent pass. The same test also raised concerns about suspension bushes and coil springs, while later records show no further defects, implying that the mechanical issues were addressed. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear brake assembly for binding or uneven wear, examine suspension bushes and coil springs for excessive play or corrosion, and check the chassis and wheel arches for structural rust. Since the recent MOTs contain no recorded defects, the vehicle appears stable, but a thorough in‑person inspection of the brake system, suspension components and chassis integrity remains essential to confirm long‑term reliability.
