2021 Vauxhall Mokka Elite NAV Premium Turbo 1.2L Petrol · FH71 NPY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows early signs of decline in suspension component integrity. The most recent test in November 2025 at 22,009 miles resulted in a pass despite a severely deteriorated nearside front upper anti-roll bar ball joint dust cover. While this did not result in a failure, it indicates that rubber-based suspension components are beginning to perish due to age rather than high usage. The mileage profile is low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,400 miles per year. In the November 2024 test at 10,821 miles, the car passed with no recorded defects, suggesting a very clean period during that interval. The accumulation of 11,188 miles between the last two tests is consistent with low-use patterns, though such mileage can lead to dry rot in rubber components if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the front suspension to ensure the flagged anti-roll bar dust cover and the ball joint itself have not developed play or perished further. Given the low annual mileage, it is vital to check for surface corrosion on the brake discs, as vehicles that do not drive frequently often suffer from rust pitting that can seize the calipers. Inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking, as the age of the rubber likely exceeds the tread wear in this low-mileage scenario.
