2015 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Diesel · NA65 VMM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive care. While it passed its latest test in April 2026 at 110,999 miles, this followed a significant failure just one month prior. The record indicates a sudden decline in mechanical standards between early 2025 and early 2026, suggesting that the owner may have only addressed faults once they reached the point of failure rather than performing routine replacements of worn components. The recorded mileage of 110,999 miles over 11 years aligns closely with the national average of approximately 10,000 miles per annum. There is a notable spike in usage between March 2024 at 94,398 miles and April 2025 at 103,176 miles, representing nearly 9,000 miles in a single year. However, the 50 miles driven between the March failure and April pass in 2026 suggests a period of intensive use, which likely explains the accelerated wear observed on the suspension and rubber components. A buyer must scrutinize the front and rear suspension geometry, as the history reveals recurring issues with ball joints and bushes. The March 2026 failure highlighted an excessively worn nearside front arm ball joint and a failed dust cover, while the April pass still noted slight wear on both rear axle swivel pins and bushes. These components are critical for handling stability and preventing uneven tyre wear. The presence of wear across multiple points suggests the suspension system is nearing the end of its functional life and may require comprehensive inspection. The tyre condition also warrants close physical inspection. The March 2026 test flagged three critical tyre failures including a structural bulge on the offside rear and exposed cords on the offside front. While these were likely replaced prior to the April pass, the buyer should check the current tyres for consistent wear patterns to ensure the previously flagged suspension faults have not caused alignment issues. Additionally, the offside front shock absorber top mount bush noted in 2025 should be checked for signs of play or degradation, as it was not explicitly cleared in the most recent report.
