2011 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · WX60 AUM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows signs of emerging mechanical wear as the vehicle ages. While the most recent test in August 2025 passed, it introduced advisories for play in the nearside front steering rack inner joints and a non-excessive engine oil leak. This indicates that the vehicle is moving from a period of clean inspections into a phase where fundamental mechanical components are beginning to require preventative attention. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 7,900 miles per year over the five-year period. There is a steady accumulation of distance, moving from 102,851 miles in 2021 to 118,393 miles in 2025. This low usage suggests the van has been used for utility rather than long-distance commuting, which generally benefits the drivetrain but can lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals over longer periods. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the steering system to address the reported play in the rack inner joints, as this can affect handling and cause uneven artwork wear. The oil leak noted in the latest test requires investigation to determine if it is a simple gasket failure or a more significant seal issue. Additionally, given the history of worn and perished tyres in 2023, the current condition of all four tyres and the alignment should be verified to ensure there are no lingering tracking issues resulting from the previous faults.
