2021 Vauxhall Mokka SE Edition Turbo 1.2L Petrol · SH71 OBO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a recent decline in proactive care. While the car passed its most recent MOT in November 2025 at 40,458 miles, it failed the initial test that same day due to multiple avoidable defects. The transition from a clean record in late 2024 to several failures in 2025 suggests that the owner has been neglecting basic consumable maintenance until legal deadlines forced action. At 40,458 miles over five years, the Mokka averages approximately 8,100 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage patterns. The data shows a gap of 10,664 miles between the November 2024 test and the November 2025 test, indicating consistent annual use rather than long periods of standing. This mileage is moderate for the drivetrain and suspension components, yet the recent failure regarding wipers and tyres suggests that these wear items are not being monitored between annual service intervals. A buyer must physically inspect the nearside rear tyre, as the 2025 record specifically flagged it as being worn on the edge, which often points to an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. The failure of both windscreen wipers in November 2025 indicates the rubber blades have perished or stripped prematurely; these should be replaced immediately for visibility. Furthermore, because a child seat previously obstructed a full inspection of the adult seatbelt, the buyer should manually check the tension and condition to ensure there is no fraying or mechanical failure in the webbing that the tester missed.
