2014 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Petrol · BD14 WNN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on 6 April 2026 at 77,860 miles, but the maintenance trend shows signs of emerging mechanical wear. The most recent test required a failure for a non-functional offside dipped beam headlamp, alongside advisories for a worn nearside front lower suspension arm bush and a binding nearside rear service brake. While the vehicle passed in 2025 with no defects, the return of suspension and braking issues suggests that wear is beginning to accumulate more frequently as the vehicle ages. The mileage history indicates a consistent and typical usage pattern for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. The record shows steady progression from 17,860 miles in May 2017 to the current 77,860 miles. There are no significant gaps in the testing history, which suggests the vehicle has been in regular use rather than sitting idle for long periods. This consistent mileage helps explain the gradual degradation of consumable components like tyres and brake discs seen throughout the record. A prospective buyer should focus attention on the suspension and braking systems. The record shows recurring issues with tyres being worn close to the legal limit, specifically in 2022 and 2024, which points to a pattern of reactive rather than proactive tyre maintenance. The tester also flagged deteriorating dust covers on the offside front suspension arm and track rod end in August 2024. Given the recent advisory for a binding rear brake and a worn suspension bush, a physical inspection of the rear caliper condition and the integrity of all front-end rubber components is necessary. The history also reveals intermittent issues with lighting and minor fluid leaks. An oil leak was noted in August 2022, and an exhaust flexi-pipe leak appeared during the same test. While these were resolved or passed, the buyer should check for any residual signs of oil seepage or exhaust corrosion. The repeated failures for headlamp issues in 2020, 2022, and 2026 suggest that electrical bulb or socket reliability should be verified to ensure no further immediate repairs are required.
