2014 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Petrol · DN14 BWU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test in July 2025 at 78,687 miles passed despite advisories for pitting and scoring on both rear brake discs. This follows a period in mid-2024 where the vehicle failed due to significant suspension issues and exhaust leaks. While the car has cleared its latest inspection, the recurrence of mechanical faults across different systems suggests that repairs are only addressed once they cause failure. The mileage profile is consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. There is a clear gap of roughly 4,700 miles between August 2023 and July 2024, followed by another 4,200 miles leading to the 2025 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular use, though the low mileage has not prevented the degradation of rubber components and metalwork, as evidenced by the simultaneous fractured coil springs recorded in 2024. A buyer must perform a close inspection of the engine bay to verify if the oil leak noted in July 2024 has been successfully rectified or if it remains an active issue. The exhaust flexi-section identified in 2024 should be checked for further corrosion, as these components often lead to future emissions failures. Given the recent advisories regarding pitted rear brake discs, the thickness and surface condition of the rotors should be measured to ensure they are not nearing the minimum legal limit. Furthermore, the previous failure of two rear coil springs in 2024 warrants a thorough check of the remaining suspension components for signs of stress or excessive rust.
