2017 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Petrol · CU17 XGG

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with a clean pass achieved at the latest inspection on 12 September 2025. Aside from a trivial failure regarding washer fluid in 2022 and some minor suspension advisories in 2024, the testing history shows a stable trend with no recurring major mechanical failures or structural concerns. The recorded mileage of 56,745 miles over approximately nine years indicates a typical usage pattern of roughly 6,300 miles per year. This level of accumulation suggests that while the drivetrain has not been subjected to excessive wear, the vehicle has reached an age where rubber components and suspension linkages are prone to environmental degradation, as evidenced by the deterioration of dust covers noted in previous records. Attention should be directed toward the front suspension, specifically the nearside and offside front suspension arm ball joints. Although the 2024 advisories focused on the dust covers, the deterioration of these seals can allow contaminants to enter the joint, potentially leading to premature wear of the ball joint itself. During a test drive, listen for any knocking or clicking sounds when traversing uneven road surfaces or when turning the steering wheel at low speeds. The recurring advisories regarding items obstructing the driver's view suggest a habit of storing materials on the dashboard, which is a minor compliance issue rather than a mechanical defect. Beyond this, the lack of recorded corrosion or brake system failures in the DVSA history is a positive indicator, though a physical inspection of the brake discs for lip wear and the suspension bushes for cracking remains advisable given the vehicle's age.
