2020 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · DK20 ABF

The most recent MOT test on 2026-04-10 confirms the Peugeot Boxer remains roadworthy with no defects recorded at 49,416 miles. The overall maintenance trend is stable, as all prior tests since 2023 have either passed or, in one case, failed due to a minor administrative oversight rather than a mechanical issue. The absence of recurring advisories or defects across multiple tests suggests the vehicle has been consistently maintained within legal limits, though the 2025 failure at 44,792 miles—just two days before its subsequent pass—indicates a potential administrative lapse rather than a recurring mechanical fault. Mileage progression reveals an unusual pattern: a significant jump from 26,587 miles in July 2023 to 43,293 miles by July 2024, indicating approximately 16,700 miles accumulated in under a year. This suggests either heavy usage or a period of extended driving, which could accelerate wear on suspension bushes, brake components, and drivetrain fluids. The subsequent 1,518 miles between July 2024 and April 2025, followed by another 4,625 miles before the 2026 test, implies a more moderate usage phase. While the average annual mileage of 8,236 miles is typical for its age, the abrupt increase in 2023–2024 warrants scrutiny of high-wear items. Given the lack of recorded defects, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension components—particularly the rear bushes and coil springs—due to the rapid mileage spike in 2023–2024. Binding or unevenly worn brake calipers or discs could also emerge, especially if the vehicle was driven hard during that period. Structural integrity should be checked for corrosion, particularly around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as these areas are prone to deterioration over six years. Fluid levels and condition—brakes, power steering, and differential—should be verified, as prolonged high mileage may necessitate recent servicing. The 2025 failure at nearly identical mileages (44,792 vs. 44,811) hints at a possible administrative error, but the vehicle’s consistent pass rates otherwise suggest no hidden mechanical issues.
