Our Verdict
Recommended. This vehicle presents a str
When reviewing this vehicle, prioritise the service history to ensure the 1.2L turbo engine has been serviced at the recommended intervals. While the mileage is low, regular oil changes are critical for the longevity of these smaller turbocharged units. Verify that the repairs to the anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust covers, which caused the August 2026 failure, have been properly documented.
Check the current state of the tyres, particularly the front pair, as they were noted as being worn close to the legal limit in August 2025. If they have not been replaced since that MOT, this provides a valid point for price negotiation.
The 1199cc petrol engine is designed for a balance of efficiency and performance, benefiting from Euro 6 AP emissions standards which helps with urban compliance. Insurance groups for the Mokka SRi typically fall into a mid-range category, making it accessible for many drivers.
Annual costs will include road tax, insurance, and fuel. Given the engine size and body style, maintenance is generally straightforward, though turbo-petrol engines require high-quality lubricants. The estimated annual running cost is likely to be moderate.
Pay close attention to the front suspension. Specifically, inspect the anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust covers on both the nearside and offside, as these were the cause of the MOT failure on 2026-08-10. Ensure the replacements are secure and free from leaks.
Additionally, check the tread depth of the front tyres to confirm they were replaced following the August 2025 advisory. Finally, inspect the windscreen wiper blades for any signs of tearing or degradation, referencing the advisory recorded in April 2024.
This black 2021 Vauxhall Mokka SRi Nav Premium Turbo A has covered 27,694 miles. The MOT history shows four tests since registration, with three passes and one recent failure that was rectified within 24 hours. The overall record indicates a vehicle with low usage relative to its age.
