2014 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Petrol · FH63 AAO

The Vauxhall Mokka’s most recent MOT test on 2025-12-11 confirms it remains roadworthy, though the record reveals a pattern of repeated failures at the same mileage intervals. The vehicle passed both tests in 2024 and 2025 without defects, but the duplicate entries at 90,858 miles and 84,354 miles —both marked as failed before passing—suggest either a test centre error or a minor oversight in pre-test preparation. No advisories or major faults were recorded, indicating the tester did not identify any critical issues like excessive corrosion, suspension failure, or binding brakes. The absence of recurring advisories implies no known long-term concerns, but the repeated failures at identical mileages warrant scrutiny of components that typically fail around these thresholds, such as brake pads, tyres, or suspension bushes. The recorded mileage of 106,392 miles over roughly 12 years reflects a steady usage rate of around 8,866 miles annually , which is typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps in mileage between tests, and the progression from 84,354 miles to 90,858 miles to 106,392 miles shows consistent driving rather than periods of neglect or prolonged storage. This pattern suggests the vehicle has been maintained at regular intervals, though the duplicate failures at identical mileages may indicate a recurring issue that was either corrected between tests or overlooked by the tester. Given the lack of recorded defects, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of brake components , particularly pads, discs, and calipers, as these are the most likely candidates for the repeated failures at identical mileages. Suspension bushes and coil springs should also be examined for wear, as these often fail around the same intervals and can lead to handling issues. Tyre tread depth and lateral wear patterns should be checked, as failing twice on this criterion would imply basic upkeep was inconsistent. Finally, inspect for corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as this is a common failure point in Vauxhall models of this age. The absence of advisories does not guarantee these areas are clear, so visual confirmation is essential.
