2015 Peugeot Unknown 2.2L Diesel · DK15 AZN

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on July 4, 2024, at 110,949 miles confirmed full roadworthiness with no defects, marking a stable and consistent maintenance pattern over the past two years. The two consecutive failures in April and May 2023—both at just 108,896 and 108,975 miles—were unusual, as neither recorded specific defects, suggesting either a temporary administrative oversight or a brief period of non-compliance. Since then, the vehicle has passed every test without fail, indicating reliable upkeep. However, the abrupt return to compliance in June 2023, followed by uninterrupted passes, implies the earlier issues were resolved rather than recurring. The absence of advisories or repeated faults in the last two tests suggests the vehicle has not suffered from systemic neglect, though the brief 2023 failures warrant scrutiny of any underlying mechanical triggers. The recorded mileage of 110,949 miles over approximately 11 years aligns with typical usage for this age, averaging around 10,086 miles annually. The gap between the December 2021 test at 99,941 miles and the first 2023 failure at 108,896 miles—covering just 8,955 miles in 17 months—indicates a period of relatively low activity, which could imply either light usage or prolonged storage. The subsequent rapid accumulation of 2,063 miles between the two 2023 failures suggests active driving resumed, though the lack of defects in those tests makes it difficult to correlate mileage spikes with mechanical stress. The most recent test in July 2024, just 11 months ago, means the vehicle has not yet reached the 12-month MOT renewal threshold, ensuring current compliance with emissions and safety standards. Given the clean MOT history since 2023, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of the suspension components—particularly the rear suspension bushes and coil springs—due to the vehicle’s age and mileage. The brief 2023 failures, though unexplained, could hint at intermittent issues with brake binding or caliper wear, so the rear brake system should be checked for uneven pad thickness, seized calipers, or corrosion on the brake discs. Structural integrity is also critical; the frame rails, sills, and wheel arches should be examined for signs of corrosion or damage, especially if the vehicle was stored in harsh conditions. The absence of advisories in recent tests does not preclude gradual wear in less visible areas, such as the exhaust system, fuel system components, or power steering fluid condition. Given the 2021-to-2023 gap, any signs of prolonged neglect—such as degraded interior materials or neglected fluid changes—would further clarify the vehicle’s true maintenance history.
