2021 Vauxhall Mokka SRI NAV Premium EV Electric · WH21 UFA

Consistent roadworthiness defines this vehicle, which has maintained a clean pass record in its two most recent annual inspections, including the latest test conducted on 10 April 2026. While the 2025 examination identified minor tyre wear, the absence of any defects during the 2024 and 2026 tests suggests a stable mechanical trajectory for this electric powertrain. The vehicle has successfully navigated its initial MOT cycle without any recorded component failures or structural concerns, indicating that the core systems have remained within regulatory tolerances throughout its five-year operational life. Accumulating 43,989 miles over five years results in an average of approximately 8,798 miles per annum, a steady usage pattern that avoids the extremes of excessive high-speed motorway accumulation or prolonged periods of inactivity. For an electric vehicle, this mileage is significant enough to have moved the platform beyond its initial bedding-in phase, meaning that high-wear consumables such as suspension bushings and steering linkages will have experienced a standard degree of fatigue. The consistent annual testing intervals confirm that the vehicle has been subjected to regular roadworthiness checks, providing a reliable baseline for its current mechanical state. Prospective buyers should focus their inspection on the rear axle components, given that the 2025 advisories specifically highlighted uneven tyre wear on both the nearside and offside. While tyres are replaceable, this pattern can sometimes indicate subtle misalignment or premature wear in the rear trailing arm bushes or shock absorber mounts. During a test drive, listen closely for any knocking or metallic rattling noises when traversing speed humps or uneven road surfaces, as these sounds often signal that the rear suspension geometry is beginning to deviate from factory specifications. Beyond the suspension, the braking system warrants attention despite the absence of formal test failures. Because electric vehicles rely heavily on regenerative braking, the physical friction brakes can occasionally suffer from surface corrosion or binding if they are not used with sufficient force to clear the discs. Ensure the pedal feel is firm and consistent, and verify that there is no audible grinding or dragging sensation during deceleration, which would indicate that the calipers are not releasing fully or that the discs have developed significant oxidation. Checking the inner and outer faces of the brake discs for consistent wear patterns will confirm that the braking system is operating as expected.
