2014 Vauxhall Mokka 1.6L Petrol · ST14 OGE

The current roadworthiness status of this Vauxhall Mokka is stable, though the maintenance trend shows a pattern of deferred remedial work. The most recent MOT on 5 January 2026 at 78,690 miles resulted in a pass, yet it highlighted four distinct advisories regarding the suspension and tyre condition. While the vehicle remains compliant with legal standards, the presence of recurring advisories suggests that previous owners have consistently opted for the bare minimum to secure a pass rather than performing preventative maintenance. The recorded mileage of 78,690 miles over twelve years averages approximately 6,558 miles annually, which is well within the expected range for a vehicle of this age. The history shows a consistent, moderate accumulation of miles between annual tests, indicating the car has seen regular use rather than sitting idle for extended periods. This steady usage profile is generally preferable to low-mileage examples that may suffer from seized components or perished seals due to inactivity, though the mechanical records indicate the car has not been immune to the typical wear associated with its age. A prospective buyer must prioritise a thorough inspection of the front suspension, specifically the lower arm ball joints and the offside coil spring, as these were flagged in the most recent test. The recurring advisories regarding pitted or scored rear brake discs from 2021 through 2024 indicate a potential issue with the braking system's longevity or the quality of replacement parts used. You should also verify the condition of the front tyres, as the vehicle has a history of uneven wear patterns that may point to underlying tracking or alignment issues. Focusing your budget on these specific suspension and braking components will be essential to ensuring the vehicle remains reliable in the coming year.
