2018 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · DY68 MZP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 27 March 2026 at 58,389 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though a recent failure occurred just two days prior to that pass. The tester flagged a damaged nearside track rod end ball joint dust cover at 58,383 miles, which was clearly rectified immediately. This suggests the owner is responsive to safety-critical defects once they are identified. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per year. Between September 2023 and March 2026, the car covered 10,937 miles, indicating steady rather than excessive use. The gap of 4,192 miles between the August 2024 and August 2025 tests shows regular usage intervals. This low annual mileage generally reduces the likelihood of premature mechanical wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage examples. A buyer should inspect the front suspension in person to ensure the failed track rod end has not caused uneven wear on the tyres or steering geometry. The 2024 advisory regarding a perishing offside rear tyre suggests the vehicle may have sat for short periods, which can lead to rubber degradation across all fitted tyres. Additionally, the minor exhaust leak noted in 2023 should be verified to ensure the manifold or ducting system has not developed further corrosion since that inspection, despite passing subsequent tests.
