2015 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Petrol · DP65 PVE

The vehicle presents a roadworthy status, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in September 2025 at 40,041 miles was a pass, it followed a failure just two days prior. The trend for the braking system is concerning, with recurring issues regarding thin pads and pitted discs that appear consistently over the last two years. The persistent presence of worn brake components across multiple tests suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical faults when they directly threaten an MOT pass. At 11 years old, the recorded 40,041 miles represent an exceptionally low annual average of approximately 3,640 miles per year. This low usage explains the relatively fresh condition of some components but also introduces specific risks. Between the September 2023 test at 32,359 miles and the August 2024 test at 35,563 miles, the vehicle covered only 3,204 miles in a full year. Such low mileage often leads to surface corrosion on braking hardware and suspension components from infrequent use, as evidenced by the pitted discs and corroded springs. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear suspension assembly. The 2024 failure highlighted a fractured offside coil spring and a corroded nearside spring; while these were replaced, the remaining components should be checked for similar fatigue or structural rust. The tyre pressure monitoring system was flagged as inoperative in 2025 and needs to be verified for functionality. Furthermore, because the rear brake pads were noted at 2mm in the latest test, they are nearing their service limit and likely require immediate replacement to prevent further damage to the rotors.
