2012 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · CV62 BDU

The 2012 Peugeot Partner with 121,233 miles shows a recent MOT history marked by inconsistency. The most recent test on 2026-01-16 at 121,233 miles resulted in a pass, but this followed a failure on 2026-01-10 at 121,088 miles. The six-day gap between these tests and the minimal mileage increase of 145 miles raises questions about the vehicle’s operational status during this period. No defects were recorded in either test, suggesting potential issues were resolved swiftly or that the failure may have been procedural. The trend lacks clear evidence of worsening or improvement, but the proximity of the failure and pass warrants scrutiny. The vehicle’s mileage of 121,233 miles over 14 years aligns with an average of 8,660 miles annually, a typical figure for its age. However, the MOT records reveal sparse data, with only four tests spanning 21 months. The 2025-02-06 pass at 115,891 miles and the preceding failure on 2025-02-05 at 115,839 miles indicate a similar pattern of near-consecutive tests, though no defects were noted. The lack of detailed failure reasons limits analysis, but the consistent absence of recorded defects in passes suggests the vehicle has met basic roadworthiness standards. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the braking system, as recurring MOT tests without defects may mask underlying issues like binding calipers or uneven brake disc wear. Suspension components, including coil springs and bushes, should also be checked for wear, given the vehicle’s age. Structural integrity and exhaust emissions, particularly after the recent failure, warrant attention. The minimal mileage gain between the latest failure and pass implies potential inactivity or odometer discrepancies, which could affect component corrosion or fluid degradation. Thorough mechanical evaluation is advised to confirm the vehicle’s reliability.
