2017 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · DN67 WKS

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight shift toward reactive repairs of consumable components. The most recent test in September 2025 at 45,214 miles flagged thin rear brake pads, following a previous advisory for thin front brake pads in September 2022 at 19,361 miles. While the car passes each inspection, the recurring nature of brake wear suggests the owner addresses issues upon failure rather than performing preventative servicing. The mileage profile is consistently low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. Between September 2021 and 2023, the car covered 15,871 miles, moving from 11,598 to 27,469 miles. The more recent interval saw 17,745 miles between 2023 and 2025. This low usage generally indicates less strain on the drivetrain and engine but increases the risk of rubber-based component degradation and brake seizing, which often occurs when a vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should specifically inspect the exhaust system, as the 2024 test identified a minor leak in the front exhaust flex at 35,209 miles. This component is prone to cracking and should be checked for signs of corrosion or further failure. Given the repeated brake advisories, a physical inspection of the calipers for binding and the discs for uneven wear is necessary. The low-mileage history also warrants a check of the suspension bushes and tyres for cracking, as these parts age over time regardless of the distance driven.
