2018 PEUGEOT BOXER2.0L Diesel

The 2018 Peugeot Boxer with 171,104 miles shows a stable roadworthiness trend based on its most recent MOT, recorded on 2024-02-29 at the same mileage. The test passed with no defects, though a prior failure on 2024-02-23 at identical mileage suggests potential administrative inconsistency or a retest without corrective action. No defects were logged in any prior tests, including two 2023 and 2021 passes, indicating no recurring mechanical failures. The vehicle’s maintenance history lacks evidence of escalating issues, but the absence of recorded defects may reflect either meticulous upkeep or incomplete testing records. The mileage of 171,104 miles over eight years equates to an average of 21,388 miles annually, exceeding typical usage for its age. Notable gaps exist between tests, with the 2021-12-22 pass (159,369 miles) followed by a 2023-01-18 pass (164,299 miles) and failure (164,299 miles) on the same day, likely a data entry error. The final 6,805 miles to 171,104 were accrued over 27 months, suggesting irregular usage patterns. High annual mileage increases wear on consumables like tyres and brakes, though no such issues were flagged. A buyer should verify the vehicle’s suspension, brakes, and exhaust systems, as these are common high-mileage wear points. The lack of recorded corrosion or structural faults is positive, but the absence of detailed defect reports limits confidence. Inspect for uneven tyre wear, brake disc thickness, and suspension bushings, which may show accelerated degradation. The long interval since the last MOT (over two years) also warrants scrutiny, as undetected issues could have developed. No specific advisories from the MOT history necessitate immediate repair, but the vehicle’s age and mileage demand a thorough pre-purchase inspection.
