SF10 LNK MOT History
Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2010 Peugeot Partner (SF10 LNK) between October 2024 and April 2026.
The record contains 4 passes and 1 failure.
The most recent test on 13 April 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 1 failure that buyers may want to investigate.
Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (6 issues), Steering (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 11 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Offside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural streng”; “Nearside Front Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (6.1.7”; “Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.

Our Verdict
Caution is strongly advised before purch
Given the mileage of nearly 218,000 miles and the advisories logged at the most recent MOT, this Partner is best viewed as a working vehicle near the end of its economic life rather than a long-term investment. Budget for immediate attention to the steering rack inner joint, both front suspension arm rear bushes and any structural corrosion, as these items can quickly progress from advisory to failure. Negotiate the price accordingly and ask the seller to demonstrate the oil leak has been monitored rather than ignored; persistent oil loss from the centre of the engine often points to crankshaft seals or turbo return pipe seals on the 1.6 HDi.
A pre-purchase inspection by an independent garage is essential. Request that the vehicle be raised on a ramp so the outersills can be checked thoroughly, because the April 2025 failure noted excessive corrosion in the prescribed area on the offside rear. Test the steering for any slack or knocking at low speed, which would confirm the inner joint play flagged in two consecutive tests. Finally, ask about timing belt and clutch replacement history, as these are major-cost items on a 1.6 HDi at this mileage and the MOT record cannot confirm when either was last done.
The 1.6 HDi diesel in light-van form typically returns around 45-50 mpg on a mixed cycle, though real-world figures on a high-mileage example with possible turbo or injector wear are likely to be lower. Road tax for a diesel Partner of this age sits in a low bracket, but this engine is not ULEZ-compliant in London, which is worth factoring in for any commercial use in clean-air zones. Insurance is generally inexpensive in group 3-4 territory for this generation of Partner.
Routine maintenance on a 1.6 HDi at this mileage will be the main cost driver, with diesel particulate filter, clutch, timing belt and turbo replacements all plausible within the next 12 months. Allowing for fuel, tax, insurance and a realistic maintenance budget for a van of this age and mileage, expect annual running costs in the region of £1,400-£1,900. This figure could rise sharply if the advisories flagged in the MOT develop into failures.
Start with a close examination of the outersills and chassis legs, particularly on the offside rear where the April 2025 failure recorded corrosion significantly reducing structural strength. Any visible perforation will mean the vehicle is beyond economical repair and should be avoided. Inspect both front suspension arm rear bushes and the lower ball joints, as the 2025 failure noted excessive wear on both sides and the 2026 test still flagged the bushes as worn. Steering play should be checked with the engine running and the wheels turned; clonking or free movement confirms the inner rack joint needs replacement.
Lift the bonnet and look for fresh oil residue around the centre of the engine block and turbo area to gauge how active the recurring oil leak is. Check the CV boots on both front driveshafts, as the 2025 failure recorded a split boot on the nearside. Test the doors, particularly the offside front driver's door, where the hinge was noted as deteriorated; a door that drops or fails to latch properly indicates worn hinges. Finally, examine the rear coil springs for corrosion and check the spare wheel well and load area for rust, given the Partner's known susceptibility to corrosion in commercial use.
This 2010 Peugeot Partner is a black 1560cc diesel van first registered in August 2010, now showing 217,788 miles on its most recent MOT in April 2026. The MOT record contains one failure (April 2025) followed by a pass, but the most recent test carried five advisories covering oil leaks, corroded vehicle structure, worn suspension bushes, a deteriorated door hinge and play in the steering rack. With no aggregate reliability data available for the model and mileage running well into six figures, buyers should approach this example with realistic expectations.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Peugeot Partner, so an overall model reputation cannot be stated with confidence. The individual record on this vehicle shows patterns of wear consistent with a high-mileage commercial diesel rather than systemic defects.
