2016 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · NK65 UWD

The Vauxhall Mokka has demonstrated a consistent roadworthiness record over the past three MOT cycles, with the most recent test on 2026-02-11 at 66,556 miles passing without any defects. This suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a level sufficient to meet current MOT standards, though the absence of advisories or recurring faults does not preclude underlying issues that may not yet have manifested. The clean pass in February 2026—just five months ago—indicates the vehicle remains within the legal threshold for road use, but buyers should verify whether the current owner has adhered to recommended servicing intervals beyond MOT requirements, particularly for fluid changes and suspension components. The mileage progression shows a steady accumulation of approximately 6,656 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps or abrupt jumps in mileage between tests, though the record does not extend beyond the current MOT cycle. The most notable anomaly is the duplicate entry for January 2023, where the vehicle was tested twice at the same mileage—once failing and once passing—though no defects were recorded in either instance. This suggests either an administrative error or a retest after a minor oversight, but it does not imply mechanical instability. Given the lack of recorded defects, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should centre on components prone to wear at this mileage: the suspension bushes and coil springs, which may exhibit dryness or cracking; the brake calipers and discs, particularly for binding or uneven wear; and the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks, especially around flanges. The absence of advisories in recent tests does not guarantee these areas are flawless, but they warrant close examination. Additionally, check for signs of structural corrosion in wheel arches and sills, as this is a common concern for Vauxhall models of this era. The tyres, while not flagged in MOTs, should be inspected for uneven tread wear, which could indicate alignment or suspension issues. Finally, verify the service history for evidence of regular oil and filter changes, as neglected lubrication can accelerate wear in the engine and drivetrain.
