2014 Vauxhall Mokka 1.7L Diesel · ST64 CZG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than preventative care. While it passed its latest test in February 2026 at 41,914 miles, the failure just one day prior highlights a lapse in monitoring basic safety and mechanical requirements. The presence of an intermittent DPF light and excessive exhaust smoke suggests ongoing engine management or diesel filtration issues that remain unaddressed, indicating a potential mechanical concern despite the vehicle's low mileage. At 41,914 miles, the mileage is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,500 miles per year. However, the data shows significant gaps in usage between January 2024 and February 2026, where only 1648 miles were recorded. This low-use pattern often correlates with the issues noted in the record, such as the perishing and cracking of the offside rear tyre noted in 2025. The vehicle likely sits for long periods, which leads to rubber degradation and component stagnation rather than mechanical wear. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension geometry, as the February 2026 failure flagged worn ball joint bushes and excessively worn lower arms on the nearside. The brake history shows a recurring pattern of neglected components, with pitted discs and thin pads flagged across 2024 and 2025 suggesting owners only replaced parts once they reached failure limits. Furthermore, the persistent TPMS light and DPF warnings require a professional diagnostic scan to ensure the smoke is not a symptom of a clogged particulate filter which could lead to expensive repairs.
