2006 Peugeot Motor-Home 2.8L Diesel · BU06 EFZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive repairs rather than proactive care. While it passed its most recent test in April 2025 at 35,482 miles, this followed a failure just two days prior due to a comprehensive list of defects including low brake efficiency and multiple lighting failures. The recurring nature of lighting issues and tyre degradation across several years suggests that the owner only addresses faults when they result in an immediate MOT failure, rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 20-year-old motorhome, averaging approximately 1,774 miles per year. The data shows a significant three-year gap between August 2021 and March 2024, during which the vehicle covered only 53 miles. This pattern of prolonged storage is consistent with the low-mileage figure but also explains the state of the age-related components. The tester consistently flags perishing and cracking on all tyre sidewalls, which is a direct result of rubber drying out while standing for long periods regardless of remaining tread depth. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the power steering system, as the record repeatedly noted corrosion and seepage in the pipes and rack boots since 2021. The persistent front oil leak is a known quantity that requires monitoring to ensure it does not escalate into a significant failure. Furthermore, the braking system shows signs of neglect; the 2025 failure for efficiency and the noted pitting and scoring on the discs indicate that the vehicle sits long enough for corrosion to build. Given reports of corrosion on suspension components and brake pivots, a structural check of the chassis is essential to ensure that the low mileage has not masked underlying rust common in motorhomes of this age.
