2013 PEUGEOT PARTNER1.6L Diesel

The vehicle presents a current roadworthy status following the June 2025 test cycle, with the final June 2025 pass at 162,782 miles showing no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable on paper, though the record reveals a recurring pattern of same-day failure followed by pass at each recent annual interval. The tester logged a failure on 2 June 2025 at 162,787 miles with no defects cited, then a clean pass at 162,782 miles the same day; an identical sequence occurred on 22 June 2024 (fail, 154,139 miles) and 1 July 2024 (pass, 154,143 miles). Such paired entries with zero advisories suggest administrative or presentation anomalies at the testing station rather than genuine mechanical faults. Mileage accumulation sits high for a 2013 Peugeot Partner, averaging roughly 12,500 miles per year across its life. The odometer moved from 144,338 miles at the June 2023 pass to 154,143 by July 2024, then to 162,782 by June 2025, equating to about 9,800 and 8,600 miles in the respective periods. No standing gaps or abrupt surges appear; the progression is linear and consistent with steady commercial use. The DVSA data itself is sparse, listing only passes and defect-free failures with no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions at any stage. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and consumable wear despite the clean advisory list. High mileage vans of this era commonly develop worn coil springs, degraded suspension bushes, and corroded subframes that a basic test may overlook if within limits. Verify the brake calipers are free from binding and confirm tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, since the record offers no evidence of recent replacement. The repeated same-day fail-pass pairs warrant scrutiny of the test centre's documentation, but they do not by themselves indicate underlying mechanical risk.
