1998 PEUGEOT EXPERT1.9L Diesel

The Peugeot Expert presents a stable roadworthiness trend with no active defects. The most recent test on 17 September 2021 at 176,616 miles returned a clean pass, and the three prior successful tests show no advisories or recorded faults. The maintenance record indicates consistent statutory compliance rather than deferred repairs. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 28-year-old van. The record shows 160,218 miles in April 2018, rising to 165,722 by April 2019, then 171,541 in September 2020 and 176,616 by September 2021. That equates to roughly 5,400 miles per year across the documented span. A two-day fail-and-repass in April 2019 at 165,721 to 165,722 miles occurred with no defects listed, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. The absence of advisories across five tests means the MOT record alone gives no warning on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions. A buyer should still inspect structural integrity in person, given the vehicle's age and the likelihood of hidden underside rust on a 1998 Peugeot. Check coil springs, subframe mounts, and brake calipers for age-related binding or fatigue not captured by the clean tests. Given the 2021 test is nearly five years old relative to today's date, the van has covered an unknown distance since. Any purchase must include a fresh mechanical inspection and a current MOT before reliance on this history.
