2017 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · FH17 WSJ

The Vauxhall Mokka presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 April 2026 at 24,069 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results since the August 2023 examination. The recorded mileage reflects exceptionally light use for a nine-year-old vehicle. The August 2023 test logged 14,181 miles; by 5 August 2024 the odometer read 18,804 miles, rising to 22,982 miles on 4 August 2025 and 24,069 miles by April 2026. That equates to roughly 2,674 miles per year. The DVSA record shows a failed test on 5 August 2024 at 18,804 miles with no defects listed, immediately followed the same day by a pass at identical mileage, which suggests an administrative or procedural anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories for tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion appear across the five entries. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean paper history. Low annual mileage combined with the repeated 2024 test event means the car may have stood idle for long periods, raising the risk of seized calipers, degraded brake discs, and perished rubber components not captured in a static MOT. The absence of any structural or exhaust emissions flags is reassuring, but standing vehicles often hide underseal corrosion and flat-spotted tyres. Given the sparse and defect-free record, previous ownership appears to have prioritised basic statutory compliance over intensive use. Verify service history independently and confirm the 2024 dual-entry anomaly with DVSA before purchase.
