2016 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Diesel · MH16 AFA

The 2016 Vauxhall Mokka demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-03-06 at 63,542 miles recording a pass and no defects. However, the vehicle experienced two consecutive failed tests in May 2024 (54,500 miles) and May 2023 (45,773 miles), though neither failure cited specific defects. These results suggest potential intermittent issues requiring investigation, though the absence of recorded faults in the latest test indicates resolution. The vehicle’s maintenance history lacks recurring structural or mechanical warnings, but the pattern of failed tests raises questions about consistency in compliance. The mileage progression shows a typical annual average of 6,354 miles over 10 years, though a significant jump from 45,774 miles (2023) to 54,502 miles (2024) reflects a 19% increase in usage. This rapid accumulation may accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust emissions systems. The 14-month gap between the 2024 and 2025 MOTs also exceeds the standard annual cycle, potentially allowing undetected issues to persist. Despite this, the absence of recorded defects in the latest test suggests the vehicle has been maintained to acceptable standards. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as well as the brake calipers and discs for binding or uneven wear, given the historical failures. The exhaust system and emissions controls should also be checked for corrosion or leaks, as these are common failure points in older vehicles. Structural integrity remains unaddressed in the records, but the lack of rust-related advisories implies no major body corrosion. Overall, the car appears roadworthy but warrants a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the resolution of past issues.
