Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle currently presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 08 September 2025 at 101,676 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that previous mechanical or safety concerns have been addressed. This follows a period of passes in 2023 and 2024, suggesting the car is currently being maintained to a functional standard. At 101,676 miles, this 18-year-old Peugeot has averaged approximately 5,649 miles per year, which is significantly below the UK national average. This low mileage profile often indicates lighter annual use or extended periods of being stationary. The data shows a consistent usage pattern with roughly 4,400 miles driven between the August 2023 and August 2024 tests, and another 4,600 miles between August 2024 and September 2025. The history shows failures in August 2023 and August 2024 that were rectified immediately by subsequent passes. While the specific reasons for these failures are not detailed in the summary provided, the recurring nature of test failures suggests the vehicle may be prone to specific component wear that requires regular attention before it reaches the MOT threshold. A buyer should perform a physical inspection focusing on structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, which are common failure points for models of this age. Given the low annual mileage, the inspector should also check for rubber-based components such as perished suspension bushes and split sidewalls which degrade due to age rather than distance. Examining brake discs for pitting or seized calipers is advisable to ensure the braking system remains responsive despite the low usage. The recent clean record suggests the current owner is proactive in addressing faults to keep the vehicle roadworthy.
