2018 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · VU68 AEB

The Vauxhall Mokka presents a current MOT pass dated 20 August 2025 at 66,683 miles, with the tester recording no defects. The maintenance trend is stable across the three-year record, as each annual examination from August 2023 onward logged zero mechanical or structural advisories. The vehicle failed the test on 14 August 2025 and 21 August 2024, yet both failures show no defects listed, pointing to procedural or administrative anomalies rather than a worsening condition. Odometer data reflects roughly typical annual use for an eight-year-old vehicle. In the August 2023 test at 53,488 miles, the car then recorded 61,444 miles by August 2024, a gain of 7,956 miles. The latest test shows 66,683 miles, meaning only 5,239 miles accumulated over the subsequent twelve months, indicating lighter recent running. No significant gaps or rapid accumulation appear, and the clean sheet offers sparse but reassuring evidence of basic upkeep. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and braking components such as discs and calipers, since the MOT record lacks advisories that often precede failure. The repeated fail-with-no-defect pattern hints the previous owner corrected minor non-mechanical items like lighting or paperwork swiftly; verify the V5C logbook and MOT certificate details. Examine underbody structural areas for corrosion, as the Mokka's age makes sill and subframe rust a plausible hidden risk. Tyre tread and wiper blades remain consumable items not flagged in the record, but a visual check is prudent.
