2016 VAUXHALL MOKKA1.6L Diesel

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend despite recurring minor MOT failures. The most recent test on 28 November 2025 at 84,829 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a failure just eight days prior at 84,737 miles. This pattern suggests the owner is proactive enough to rectify immediate compliance issues, such as bulbs, wipers, or minor leaks, to pass the test rather than ignoring underlying mechanical or structural deterioration. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,500 miles annually. Between the November 2023 test at 73,155 miles and the November 2024 test at 78,252 miles, the car covered 4,897 miles, while another 6,577 miles were clocked in the following year. This steady usage indicates regular operation rather than long periods of standing, which generally reduces the risk of seized brake components or perished suspension bushings compared to low-mileage examples. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific areas that caused the failures in 2024 and 2025, as the record provided does not specify the exact defect codes. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, it is vital to check the underside for corrosion on the sills and rear suspension arches, as these are common points for this model. Inspect the brake discs for excessive wear and check the suspension wish arms for play to ensure that the recent passes are not merely masking developing mechanical wear that will require attention in the near future.
