2011 Peugeot Bipper 1.4L Diesel · OV11 AAU

The 2011 Peugeot Bipper’s most recent MOT on 2026-04-07 at 157,688 miles resulted in a pass, but a prior failure on 2026-03-27 at 157,682 miles—just 6 miles earlier—suggests inconsistent testing or potential technical issues. No defects were recorded in either test, indicating the vehicle met minimum legal standards but may have had procedural or minor compliance issues. The maintenance trend shows no clear worsening, as earlier tests from 2024 and 2025 also passed without defects. However, the proximity of the failure and subsequent pass raises questions about the reliability of the most recent assessment. The vehicle’s mileage of 157,688 miles over 15 years aligns with an average of 10,513 miles annually, reflecting typical usage. Notably, the 2024-02-07 MOT recorded both a pass and failure at the same mileage of 144,881 miles, which may indicate administrative error or a retest after minor adjustments. The minimal mileage increase between 2025-02-07 (153,011 miles) and 2026-03-27 (157,682 miles) suggests limited use in the final 14 months, though this could also reflect incomplete data. The absence of defects in most tests implies no major mechanical or structural failures, but the lack of detailed reporting limits deeper analysis. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, warrant scrutiny, as repeated MOTs without defects may mask gradual wear. Structural integrity should be checked for corrosion, especially in areas prone to rust. The exhaust system and emissions compliance, though not flagged in records, remain critical for older vehicles. Verify the MOT history’s accuracy, as duplicate tests and minimal mileage changes could obscure underlying issues.
