Our Verdict
This 2015 Vauxhall Mokka is a sensible option for those seeking a diesel crossover with a relatively clean recent MOT record. While it has seen significant use, the lack of defects in its most recent tests is a positive indicator for a buyer.
When inspecting this specific 1.6L diesel model, focus on the service history to ensure the timing belt and water pump have been changed according to manufacturer intervals, as these are critical for this engine type. Given the mileage is approaching the 100,000-mile mark, check for any signs of clutch wear or dual-mass flywheel vibration if it is a manual transmission.
Negotiate based on the mileage; at over 90,000 miles, you should verify that the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) has been adequately maintained through regular motorway driving. Ask for evidence of recent brake and tyre replacements, as these are common maintenance items at this stage of a vehicle's life.
As a 1598cc diesel, this Mokka is designed for efficiency on longer journeys, though urban driving may impact fuel economy and DPF longevity. Tax bands for 2015 models vary depending on the exact CO2 output, so verify the specific rate for this registration.
Insurance groups for the Mokka are generally mid-range, making it accessible for many drivers. Expect typical maintenance costs for a diesel crossover of this age, including regular oil changes and potential sensor replacements as the mileage climbs.
Review the MOT history specifically regarding the failure noted in January 2025; although the record shows 'no defects recorded' for the failure itself in this data snippet, you should confirm exactly what caused that failure during your physical inspection.
Check the condition of the suspension components and exhaust system, as these are common areas for wear on crossovers used for significant annual mileage. Additionally, inspect the black paintwork for any signs of fading or significant stone chipping common on vehicles used for high-mileage diesel commuting.
Registered in September 2015, this black 1.6L diesel Mokka has covered 90,113 miles as of its last MOT in November 2025. The vehicle has a documented history of five MOT tests, showing a pattern of passing with no defects recorded in the last three tests. Although it experienced a failure in January 2025, the subsequent pass without defects suggests recent maintenance was addressed.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Vauxhall Mokka to provide a comparative benchmark.
