2013 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Petrol · NG62 AOR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than proactive servicing. The most recent test in February 2026 at 45,835 miles resulted in a failure due to a structural bulge in the nearside rear tyre and thin brake pads. While the vehicle passed immediately after these repairs, the recurrence of brake-related advisories suggests that the owner only addresses components once they reach a point of failure or significant wear. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 45,835 miles is exceptionally low, averaging only approximately 3,500 miles per year. This low usage is consistent across the long gaps between tests, such as the 4,218-mile interval between February 2024 and February 2025. However, such low mileage on a vehicle of this age often points to age-related degradation. This is evidenced by the perishing and cracking of the nearside rear tyre noted in 2025 and the persistent deterioration of registration plates seen throughout the vehicle's history. A buyer should closely inspect the braking system, as records show pitting and scoring on front discs in 2021 and thinning pads in 2026. The low annual mileage increases the likelihood of brake caliper seizing and rubber component perish due to lack of use. Additionally, the physical condition of the tyres must be verified, as the history shows a pattern of structural failure and surface cracking that indicates the rubber may be out of its life despite sufficient tread depth.
