2015 Vauxhall Mokka 1.7L Diesel · FL15 FXB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a worsening trend regarding deferred component replacement. While it passed its most recent test in October 2025 at 140,643 miles, this followed an immediate failure just two days prior. The presence of multiple advisories regarding exhaust leaks, perished rubber boots, and corroded coil springs suggests that the owner is only addressing mechanical faults when forced by an MOT failure rather than following a proactive service schedule. At 11 years old, the 140,643 miles recorded represent a high-usage profile, averaging approximately 12,800 miles per year. This consistent mileage places significant stress on the drivetrain and suspension wear items. Between October 2023 and October 2025, the vehicle covered 18,131 miles, which is a high rate of accumulation. This usage is consistent with the rapid wear seen on the front suspension components, such as the ball joints and track rod ends that required attention during that two-year period. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension geometry and the exhaust system. The record shows recurring issues with suspension arm ball joints and track rod ends, which are critical for steering precision and tire wear. The noted minor leak in the central front exhaust pipe is likely to worsen and will eventually require a full section replacement if not addressed soon. Furthermore, the corrosion noted on both rear coil springs has persisted since 2024; these should be checked for structural fractures or deep pitting that could lead to a sudden failure under load.
