2015 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · FV65 FNZ

The vehicle is currently in a questionable state of roadworthiness with a worsening maintenance trend. While it passed its most recent test on 7 October 2025 at 52,770 miles, the record shows a pattern of neglecting recurring faults. The tester flagged worn, pitted, and scored front brake discs and an oil leak on that date, both of which had been noted as advisories as far back as August 2023. The fact that these issues persisted for over two years without being rectified suggests a reactive approach to maintenance rather than a preventative one. The mileage is exceptionally low for an eleven year old car, averaging roughly 4,797 miles per year. The odometer reading moved only 1,393 miles between September 2024 and October 2025. Such low usage often leads to the degradation of rubber components and fluid stagnation. This is evidenced by the September 2021 failure at 43,084 miles, where three tyres were found with ply or cords exposed, indicating the vehicle may have sat idle for extended periods while the tyres perished. A buyer must prioritise a thorough inspection of the engine bay and braking system. The oil leak around the sump nut and gasket area has been a constant presence since August 2023 and requires a professional assessment to determine if it is a simple seal failure or a more systemic engine issue. The front brake discs are clearly degraded; the transition from worn in 2023 to pitted and scored by 2025 indicates they are well past their service life. Further attention should be paid to the exhaust system and electrical components. A minor exhaust leak was flagged consistently between October 2022 and August 2023, and the recent failures involving the tyre pressure monitoring system and headlamp aim suggest a lack of attention to basic vehicle health. These recurring minor faults, combined with the long term neglect of the brakes and oil leak, point to a vehicle that has been minimally maintained.
