2015 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · AP15 ADZ

The 2024‑08‑19 MOT at 149,861 miles resulted in a pass, with only the near‑side and off‑side obligatory mirrors flagged under defect class 3.3 (b) (i). The preceding 2024‑08‑17 test recorded multiple failures including an inoperative engine MIL, front brake pads measuring less than 1.5 mm, and parking brake efficiency below 50 % of the required value. These repairs indicate an improving maintenance trend, though earlier failures reveal recurring mechanical concerns that must be verified in person. The vehicle has accumulated roughly 13,600 miles per year since its 2015 registration, a rate that far exceeds typical usage for an 11‑year‑old commercial van. Mileage rose from 106,226 miles in September 2020 to 149,861 miles by August 2024, with the steepest increase occurring between the 2020 and 2021 tests, when the odometer jumped by about 12,000 miles in a single year. A buyer should therefore examine the parking brake system, confirming full efficiency and the condition of the rear and front brake discs and pads, as the history shows repeated breaches of the 50 % efficiency threshold and sub‑1.5 mm pad thickness. The suspension bushes and coil springs, while not explicitly recorded, merit visual and tactile inspection given the high mileage and previous parking brake strain. Any evidence of structural rust on the chassis, wheel arches or suspension mounting points should be assessed, as should the engine management light circuit and exhaust emission readings, which have been non‑compliant on earlier occasions. Overall, the van is roadworthy after the latest remedial work, but the documented pattern of recurring brake and lighting faults indicates that a thorough in‑person inspection of the braking system, suspension components and structural integrity is essential before purchase.
