2019 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · DP19 HRK

The Vauxhall Mokka’s most recent MOT test on 20 June 2025—just over a year ago—confirms it passed without any defects, maintaining a clean record across all four tests. This consistency suggests the vehicle has undergone regular servicing aligned with manufacturer intervals, though no advisory notes or minor faults appear in the record. The lack of recurring issues implies no obvious pattern of neglect or deferred maintenance. However, the absence of defects does not preclude wear beyond MOT thresholds—such as suspension bush deterioration, brake pad life, or corrosion—so a thorough inspection remains essential. The recorded mileage of 65,780 miles at the latest test reflects a steady annual average of approximately 9,400 miles, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no unusual gaps between tests; the intervals between servicing appear logical, with the longest stretch of 14 months between the 2022 and 2023 tests (due to the April-to-June window) and no abrupt spikes in mileage. This pattern supports the idea of responsible ownership, though it does not account for private maintenance or repairs outside MOT scope. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an inspection of high-wear components not covered by the test. The suspension—particularly the rear bushes and coil springs—should be checked for cracking or excessive play, as these often fail silently beyond MOT tolerances. Brake discs and calipers warrant scrutiny, especially if the vehicle exhibits uneven wear or binding, though no such issues were flagged in past tests. Corrosion is another critical area; the wheel arches, subframe, and sills should be examined for pitting or structural weakening, as rust can compromise safety without immediate MOT failure. Tyre condition, though not noted in the record, should be verified, as failing twice on tread depth in other vehicles suggests basic upkeep was overlooked. Finally, the exhaust system and emissions should be inspected for leaks or catalytic converter degradation, as these can develop between tests.
