2017 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · DN67 WKP

The vehicle is currently unroadworthy following a failed MOT test on 10 June 2026 at 36,357 miles. The maintenance trend has shifted from a period of clean passes to a state of mechanical neglect. The most recent failure identifies a coolant leak at the diverter pipe and a significant failure of the nearside rear parking brake, which also failed to meet overall efficiency requirements. These faults suggest that critical mechanical systems have not been proactively despite several years of clean records. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage between 2022 and 2024, where the car covered roughly 5,600 miles over two years. However, the jump of 7,000 miles between July 2024 and June 2025 indicates a period of higher activity. Low-mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seals, as evidenced by the severely deteriorated suspension ball joint dust cover noted in the 2025 test. A buyer must inspect the cooling system thoroughly to ensure the diverter pipe leak has not caused overheating or internal damage to the engine. The parking brake mechanism requires a professional strip to determine if the nearside rear unit is seized or if the cables require adjustment. Furthermore, the presence of undertrays obscuring components in the 2026 test necessitates a physical underside inspection to check for hidden corrosion or structural damage that the tester could not clearly view.
