2018 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · LL18 HLC

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a persistent pattern of reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in April 2026 at 55,493 miles passed, yet it flagged a deteriorated front exhaust pipe flexi and a perishing offside rear tyre. While the car has passed its consecutive tests, the recurring nature of tyre-related advisories suggests the owner only addresses components once they reach a failure point or an advisory threshold. The mileage profile is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. There is a steady progression of usage recorded, with 1,489 miles covered between May 2024 and April 2025, and another 806 miles leading up to the April 2026 test. This low annual mileage suggests the vehicle is likely used for short trips or sits for long periods, which often leads to the rubber degradation seen here, specifically as evidenced by the repeated cracking and perishing of tyres noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of all tyres, as the history shows a three-year trend of structural sidewall damage across multiple axles. The failure in May 2023 at 48,194 miles due to a sidewall bulge indicates a history of impact damage or age-related failure. Additionally, the worn exhaust flexii noted in the 2026 test requires immediate attention, as these components are prone to causing leaks and increased emission levels if allowed to deteriorate further.
