2017 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Diesel · DN67 HCZ

The Vauxhall Mokka’s most recent MOT test on 2025-11-21 confirms it remains roadworthy with no defects recorded, maintaining a consistent four-year pass streak since 2022. The absence of advisories or recurring failures suggests the vehicle has been subject to regular, if not rigorous, servicing, though the lack of specific defect details leaves some critical components unconfirmed. The 2022 failure on 2022-11-19—despite passing just five days earlier—appears anomalous and may indicate a minor administrative oversight rather than a mechanical trend. Overall, the record reflects a stable maintenance pattern, though the final inspection remains the only definitive assessment of current condition. The recorded mileage of 72,581 miles over nine years equates to approximately 8,065 miles annually, a rate that aligns with typical usage for its age. There are no evident gaps in service intervals, though the precise timing of servicing isn’t documented. The lack of mileage spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity suggests the vehicle has been driven consistently rather than stored, which could imply more predictable wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers. However, without service records, the extent of proactive maintenance—such as fluid changes or alignment checks—remains unverified. A buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension system, particularly the rear bushes and coil springs, given the Mokka’s history of wear in these areas. The brakes, while not explicitly failed, warrant scrutiny for uneven pad thickness, binding calipers, or corrosion on the rear discs, which are common issues in this model. Structural integrity should also be assessed, focusing on the wheel arches, sills, and subframe for signs of corrosion, as these areas are prone to deterioration in UK conditions. Finally, the exhaust system and emissions should be checked for leaks or excessive smoke, as these are often overlooked but critical for both performance and legal compliance.
