2018 Peugeot Boxer 2.0L Diesel · NX18 AEM

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-07-31 at 4,724 miles recorded a PASS with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2024-07-22 and 2023-08-01 also passed without issues, suggesting consistent adherence to roadworthiness standards. However, the 2024-07-22 entry shows conflicting outcomes—both PASS and FAIL recorded for the same mileage, which may reflect administrative error or a test discrepancy. No structural, suspension, or braking issues were flagged in valid tests, but the lack of recent defect data limits insight into long-term reliability. The vehicle’s mileage of 4,724 miles over eight years equates to an average of 590 miles annually, significantly below typical usage for its age. This low mileage may indicate infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like batteries, fluids, and seals. Notably, the 2023-08-01 test at 3,273 miles and the 2022-07-28 test at 3,154 miles show minimal mileage progression, suggesting potential gaps in the record or extended storage. The absence of consumable wear indicators (e.g., tyre tread, brake pad thickness) in the MOT history further supports the notion of limited operational use. A physical inspection should prioritise components prone to degradation during inactivity, including the battery, engine belts, and suspension bushes. While no structural corrosion or brake system faults were recorded, the low mileage and inconsistent 2024 test data warrant verification of the vehicle’s service history. Buyers should also check for fluid leaks, steering play, and exhaust emissions, as these can reveal hidden issues not captured in MOT records. The absence of recurring defects is positive, but the vehicle’s atypical usage pattern necessitates thorough mechanical scrutiny before purchase.
