2017 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · DP66 MGO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 2 February 2026 at 56,459 miles, albeit with advisories on a front oil leak and a front coolant leak. The record shows a pattern of intermittent failures followed by corrective passes, indicating a fluctuating maintenance approach. Early emissions failure in February 2020 was rectified, and subsequent brake‑pad and CV‑gaiter issues were addressed, yet the same CV‑gaiter problem persists through 2024, suggesting incomplete remediation. The most recent test reveals new fluid leaks, marking a shift toward chassis‑related wear rather than the earlier brake and emission concerns. Mileage progression from 28,634 miles in February 2020 to 56,459 miles in February 2026 reflects an average increase of roughly 6,300 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a nine‑year‑old vehicle. The interval between the 2024 test (45,400 miles) and the 2025 failure (50,958 miles) spans only ten months, indicating a relatively tight usage period. The jump from 39,694 miles in January 2023 to 45,400 miles in January 2024 suggests a modest annual gain, while the subsequent 5,568‑mile rise between February 2025 and February 2026 points to consistent, though not excessive, mileage accrual. The data set is dense enough to reveal recurring wear items and occasional gaps in testing frequency. A prospective buyer should closely examine the front CV joint boots for cracking or pinhole damage, as the same offside boot has been flagged repeatedly from 2021 through 2024. The front Macpherson strut mounting should be inspected for corrosion, given the serious weakening noted in February 2025. Brake wear must be verified; both front and rear pads were under the 1.5 mm threshold on separate occasions, so a physical check for thin pads and disc condition is essential. Recent oil and coolant leaks demand inspection of hoses, radiator, and oil filter for signs of seepage or deteriorated seals. Finally, a thorough under‑body scan for rust around the strut towers and chassis will reveal whether the corrosion trend is progressing beyond the recorded weakness.
