2014 Peugeot Bipper 1.2L Diesel · NU14 AEW

The Peugeot Bipper currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a pass on June 6 2026 at 139,222 miles, though the maintenance trend leans firmly toward worsening neglect. Prior to passing that same day, the vehicle collected a substantial failure sheet containing dangerous defects including a fractured offside front coil spring and illegal nearside front tyre tread. The recurrence of identical advisories across multiple years proves that previous keepers have relied on reactive repairs rather than proactive servicing. Accumulating 139,222 miles over twelve years yields an average of roughly 11,600 miles annually, representing typical light commercial usage for this platform. The test frequency shows consistent annual submissions every June, tracking precisely from 115,541 miles on June 5 2024 to 129,822 miles by June 5 2025, before reaching the current reading. This steady accumulation indicates the van has remained in continuous service without extended periods of inactivity that typically cause hidden corrosion or seized mechanical linkages. Prospective buyers must conduct an immediate physical inspection of several recurring problem areas highlighted in the test history. The ongoing presence of an oil pressure light flashing, an unaddressed engine oil leak, and low power steering fluid noted in both 2025 and 2026 demand immediate diagnostic investigation to prevent catastrophic powertrain failure. Furthermore, the persistent SRS warning lamp failure recorded at the last two consecutive annual tests indicates an unresolved supplemental restraint system fault that requires professional electronic scanning. Suspension and steering components also warrant close scrutiny given the recent play flagged in the nearside front anti-roll bar linkage and past steering rack inner joint wear.
