2006 Peugeot 407 SW Sport HDI 2.0L Diesel · IEZ 6061

The 2006 Peugeot 407 SW Sport HDI demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-08-07 at 174,042 miles recording a pass and no defects. Previous tests in 2024-08-29 (169,861 miles) and 2023-07-26 (164,151 miles) also passed, though two failures in 2024-08-07 (169,677 miles) and 2023-07-06 (163,943 miles) noted no defects. This suggests the vehicle has maintained compliance without significant mechanical issues, though the lack of defect details in failure records limits insight into underlying causes. The mileage progression aligns with an average annual usage of 8,702 miles over 20 years, reflecting consistent operation without prolonged inactivity. Gaps between tests, such as the 20-day interval between 2023-07-06 and 2023-07-26, show minimal mileage gain, while longer intervals like 13 months between 2023-07-26 and 2024-08-07 saw a 5,526-mile increase. This pattern indicates regular use but no rapid wear, though the absence of detailed defect reports in failure entries prevents a full assessment of maintenance quality. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, given the vehicle’s age, and check brake components for uneven wear or binding, as these are common issues in high-mileage diesel models. Structural corrosion, particularly in the chassis or body seams, warrants scrutiny, as well as the exhaust system for leaks or damage. The absence of recorded defects in recent tests is positive, but the lack of detail in prior failures means physical verification of critical systems is essential.
