2011 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · HF61 AZW

The 2011 Peugeot Partner holds a valid roadworthy certificate after the DVSA test on 12 January 2026 at 169,314 miles returned a pass with no defects logged. The maintenance trend reads stable across the available history. The preceding test on 9 January 2026 recorded a failure at 169,296 miles yet listed no defects, a pattern repeated in December 2024 when a failure at 164,394 miles on 5 December was followed by a clean pass at 164,442 miles on 9 December. Such back-to-back fail-and-pass results without recorded faults suggest procedural anomalies rather than escalating mechanical decay. Mileage accumulation has tracked near the vehicle's 15-year average of roughly 11,300 miles per year, but recent pace eased. The test on 18 December 2023 captured 159,877 miles; by 9 December 2024 the odometer showed 164,442 miles, a 4,565-mile gain over twelve months. The climb to 169,314 miles by January 2026 adds only 4,872 miles across thirteen months. This tapering usage implies lighter recent service or prolonged standing, and the sparse five-entry record with zero advisories offers little insight into consumable renewal. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of core structural and mechanical elements the MOT entries never highlighted. The tester logged no corrosion, suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs or exhaust emissions concerns, yet a 169,000-mile Partner will likely harbour worn trailing arm bushes, tired dampers and surface rust on sills. Scrutinise subframe integrity, binding calipers and tyre sidewall condition in person. The recurring no-defect failures point to previous owners who booked immediate retests, prioritising minimal off-road time over transparent fault reporting. Verify the original failure reasons via DVSA archives before purchase, and confirm service history to validate that interval items such as timing belt and clutch have been addressed.
