2018 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · HG18 BEJ

The most recent MOT on 2026-05-05 confirmed the 2018 Vauxhall Mokka passed with a single non-critical note: the offside front windscreen was damaged but did not impair the driver’s view. This aligns with a recurring issue identified in the 2024-05-15 MOT, which noted a stone chip on the same windscreen. While neither defect posed a safety risk, the repeated damage suggests potential exposure to road debris or a lack of protective measures like windscreen guards. The 2023-05-12 MOT recorded a more significant issue: front brake pads wearing thin, which was resolved by the 2025-05-06 test. No further brake-related defects were noted in subsequent checks, indicating the problem was addressed. However, the 2023 entry highlights that wear on braking components can occur even with low mileage, depending on driving habits and maintenance. The vehicle’s mileage of 33,259 miles over 8 years equates to roughly 4,157 miles per year, which is below average for its age. This low mileage could reflect light use or periods of inactivity, which might lead to issues like brake component stiffness, fluid degradation, or electrical system faults. However, the MOT history shows no evidence of such problems beyond the windscreen and brake pads. The defect pattern appears stable, with no new safety-critical issues emerging in the last three MOTs.
