2001 Peugeot 206 2.0L Petrol · EN51 ADV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT test on 27 March 2025 at 131,789 miles with no recorded defects. This result follows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes in previous years, suggesting that issues are being rectified prior to the testing date. The lack of any advisories across the last three successful tests indicates the car is currently maintaining a clean mechanical state regarding the components inspected by the DVSA tester. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twenty-five year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,272 miles per year. The data shows significant periods of inactivity between tests, such as the 622 miles accumulated between February 2023 and April 2024, and just 746 miles between April 2024 and March 2025. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, long periods of standing often lead to the degradation of rubber-based components like perished seals and suspension bushes, which the MOT test does not necessarily detect. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the structural integrity, specifically the rear sills and floor pans, as age-related corrosion is a common failure point for this model regardless of mileage. Given the low usage, it is vital to check for seized brake calipers or degraded brake fluid resulting from lack of use. Although the MOT record is clean of advisories, the recurring failures prior to passes suggest the vehicle may have minor mechanical lapses or bulb issues that require frequent attention to meet compliance standards.
