2018 Chausson Unknown 2.3L Diesel · AE18 AEK

The 2018 Chausson presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 18 September 2025 at 20,146 miles which recorded no defects. Across the four preceding annual examinations from 2022 to 2024 the vehicle also passed with no advisories, indicating consistent mechanical condition and no escalating faults over the three-year window. Annual mileage sits well below typical expectations for an eight-year-old vehicle. The records show 11,395 miles at the September 2022 tests, rising to 14,209 by September 2023, 16,984 by September 2024, and 20,146 by September 2025. That equates to roughly 2,500 miles per year, suggesting prolonged periods of inactivity or light leisure use rather than daily commuting. The clean pass history with no corrosion, suspension, or brake advisories implies the previous keeper maintained the base systems to a reasonable standard despite the low usage. A single anomaly appears on 28 September 2022 where the tester issued a fail at 11,395 miles yet logged no defects. This points to an administrative or documentation error at the testing station rather than a genuine mechanical fault, as the same-day retest passed with identical mileage and no recorded issues. Given the sparse but clean record, a buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, particularly around chassis rails and floor panels where long stationary periods encourage moisture trapping. The brake discs, calipers, and suspension bushes warrant physical checks for seizing or perishing rubber, since low mileage and standing vehicles often hide binding calipers or flat-spotted tyres not captured in a pass-only MOT history.
