2015 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Diesel · SM65 OHB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. While the most recent test in July 2025 at 135,820 miles passed, it followed a failure earlier that year where multiple critical mechanical faults were identified. The trend shows a recurring pattern of wear-and-tear being overlooked until inspection, particularly within the suspension and braking systems, suggesting that components are only addressed once they reach the point of failure. At approximately 135,820 miles over 11 years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 12,300 miles per annum. This is slightly above the national average for a car of this age, indicating consistent and likely long-distance use. There is a significant mileage gap of over 45,000 miles between the 2024 and July 2025 tests. This rapid accumulation explains the accelerated degradation observed in suspension components, such as the fractured coil spring and worn ball joints noted in the inspection history. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension, as the record highlights a history of issues with ball joints, dust covers, and fractured artwork springs. The repeated mention of rear brake discs being pitted and scored across both 2024 and 2025 suggests that the braking system may be prone to corrosion or is being neglected. Furthermore, the consistent flagging of tyres reaching the legal limit or perishing indicates that consumable items are not replaced early, necessitating a close check of the current rubber condition and tread depth before purchase.
