2016 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Petrol · FG16 ACF

This Vauxhall Mokka presents a clean MOT history with no recorded defects across its five most recent tests, culminating in a January 2026 pass at 39,276 miles. The trend is stable, with no advisories or failures tied to mechanical degradation, structural integrity, or emissions—suggesting the vehicle has been well-maintained or luckily avoided major issues. The back-to-back passes and fails in early 2026 are unusual, but since no faults were logged, they likely stem from administrative or procedural delays rather than mechanical concerns. The January 2025 and 2024 tests also passed without issues, reinforcing a pattern of consistent compliance with roadworthiness standards. The recorded mileage of 39,276 over roughly ten years—averaging just under 3,930 miles annually—indicates either very light use or prolonged periods of inactivity. Such low annual mileage often correlates with fewer stressed components, particularly in suspension, brakes, and drivetrain wear. The absence of mileage jumps between tests (e.g., the 6,733-mile gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests) suggests the vehicle may have sat unused for stretches, which could accelerate corrosion risks in exposed areas. Buyers should verify whether the car has been driven regularly or stored, as this directly impacts component longevity. Given the flawless MOT record, no specific mechanical red flags emerge from the history. However, a prospective buyer should still inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers for early signs of wear, particularly if the car has spent time in damp conditions. The rear brakes and binding calipers—common failure points on this model—should be tested for smooth operation, as should the exhaust system for leaks or corrosion. Tyre condition and tread depth should also be checked, even if not flagged in the MOT, since low mileage can mask uneven wear from infrequent use. Structural integrity, especially around wheel arches and sills, warrants close examination, as rust can develop unseen in vehicles with irregular usage patterns.
