2012 PEUGEOT PARTNER1.6L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though the history indicates a pattern of reactive maintenance. The most recent test in September 2024 at 145,752 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure on the exact same day. This suggests the previous owner was willing to address immediate mechanical requirements to maintain compliance. The lack of advisories on the latest record indicates that the primary components currently meet minimum legal standards. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a commercial vehicle of this age. With 145,752 miles recorded over 14 years, the car averages approximately 10,400 miles per annum. Between the September 2022 test at 139,992 miles and the September 2023 test at 143,062 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 3,000 miles, showing a period of lower usage. However, the subsequent year saw an increase back to nearly the annual average, suggesting the vehicle is not sitting stationary for long periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and suspension components, given the vehicle's age and mileage. While the MOT records do not list specific recurring faults, Peugeot Partners of this era often suffer from corrosion on the rear subframe and exhaust mounting points. Inspect the sills for structural rust and check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs. Because the vehicle failed tests in both 2023 and 2024 before passing immediately after, verify that the brake systems or lighting components that caused those initial failures were properly rectified.
