2018 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · SK18 AAO

The Vauxhall Mokka presents a current roadworthy status following a pass on 3 June 2025 at 114,756 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable on paper as the most recent test recorded no defects. Prior to that clean pass, the vehicle failed twice at the same annual intervals without any defects logged, suggesting administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical fault. The absence of advisories across all five records indicates no flagged wear to suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions during the official tests. Mileage stands at 114,756 against an eight-year lifespan, equating to roughly 14,344 miles per year and placing this Mokka in the high-use bracket for its age. The records show steady accumulation: 78,256 miles in May 2023, 95,450 at the May 2024 failure, and 114,671 by the May 2025 failure. That is around 17,000 miles added in the final twelve-month span, a slightly quicker pace than the long-term average and consistent with regular motorway or business commuting rather than short urban trips. The twin failures on 18 May 2024 and 31 May 2025, both with zero defects cited, point to either repeated documentation errors or the vehicle being presented unfinished and passed days later after rectification of minor non-logged items. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and consumable components, as the DVSA data offers no visibility of tyre tread depth, wiper condition, or hidden corrosion that a clean MOT does not capture. Given the high annual mileage and two consecutive no-defect failures preceding eventual passes, previous keepers likely used the car heavily but addressed test requirements promptly. Verify service history against the 95,000 and 114,000-mile points, and physically check coil springs, binding calipers, and underbody rust before purchase.
