2016 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Diesel · JM04 KEE

The 2016 Vauxhall Mokka demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent MOT on 2025-09-03 at 132,335 miles recording no defects. Previous tests from 2024-09-07 (114,063 miles) and 2023-08-26 (92,221 miles) also showed no issues, though an earlier 2024-09-07 test at 114,062 miles recorded a failure with no defects noted. This suggests the vehicle has maintained compliance, though the lack of detailed defect records limits insight into potential underlying concerns. The absence of recurring mechanical or structural issues in the last three years implies consistent maintenance, but the high mileage of 132,335 miles raises questions about component longevity. The vehicle’s mileage accumulates at 13,234 miles annually, exceeding typical averages for its age, which may accelerate wear on consumables and mechanical systems. A significant jump from 78,573 miles (2022-08-24) to 92,221 miles (2023-08-26) indicates a 13,648-mile increase within 12 months, followed by a slower 13,000-mile rise to 114,063 miles by 2024-09-07. This pattern suggests variable usage, potentially exposing components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust systems to uneven stress. The sparse defect data, particularly the 2024 failure with no recorded issues, warrants scrutiny of whether maintenance gaps or incomplete inspections occurred. A buyer should prioritise checking for corrosion in the chassis and bodywork, given the high mileage and potential exposure to road salt. Suspension components, including coil springs and bushings, may show wear from extended use, while brake systems should be tested for uneven pad wear or caliper binding. The absence of recorded issues does not guarantee flawless condition, so a pre-purchase inspection should focus on these areas. The vehicle’s maintenance history reflects compliance but lacks depth, necessitating a thorough mechanical check to confirm its current state.
