2019 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · PRZ 7039

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 2 September 2025 at 20,965 miles. However, the maintenance trend is worsening regarding tyre health. While the 2022 and 2023 tests were clean, the 2024 and 2025 inspections both flagged perishing and cracking across multiple tyres. The 2025 record specifically notes damage or cracking to all four tyres, indicating a systemic failure to replace aged rubber despite the tread potentially remaining legal. The mileage is exceptionally low for a seven year old vehicle, averaging roughly 2,995 miles per year. The record shows a steady but light increase from 5,032 miles in September 2022 to 20,965 miles by September 2025. This pattern suggests the car has spent significant periods stationary, which aligns with the recurring advisories for perishing tyres. Rubber components degrade over time due to UV exposure and lack of use, regardless of the mileage on the odometer. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of all tyres and the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System. The September 2024 test flagged an illuminated TPMS light, and the continued presence of perishing rubber in 2025 suggests the previous owner ignored these warnings. Beyond the tyres, the low mileage increases the risk of seized brake calipers or flat spots on the tyres. Check for any signs of brake disc corrosion or binding that often accompanies vehicles that sit idle for long durations.
