2018 Vauxhall Mokka 1.4L Petrol · SC18 AHO

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT in June 2026 with 21,404 miles. While the latest test identified advisories regarding perishing and cracking on both the nearside and offside rear tyres, the previous five years of inspections show a clean record with no recorded defects. This suggests that the vehicle has not suffered from significant mechanical or structural failures during its primary service life. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,676 miles per year. The data shows consistent but minimal usage, moving from 5,108 miles in 2021 to 21,404 miles in 2026. There was a notable increase in usage of 8,264 miles between September 2024 and June 2026, but the vehicle has generally sat for long periods. Such low annual mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components despite the lack of mechanical wear. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the tyres, as the June 2026 advisory confirms the rubber is failing due to age and UV exposure rather than tread depth. Low-mileage vehicles frequently suffer from brake seizure or corrosion on the discs because they are not used enough to clear rust. Check for pitted rotors and binding calipers. Additionally, inspect the suspension bushes and split seals for cracking, as long periods of standing can cause these materials to become brittle regardless of the low mileage recorded.
