2007 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · CA54 APE

The most recent entry on file is a failure dated 17 December 2025, with no defects or advisories recorded against the test. Prior to that, the vehicle passed at 19 December 2024, 10 November 2023 and 6 December 2022, with an additional failure also logged on 6 December 2022 carrying no recorded defects. With only a single result showing in the past nine months and that result being a fail, the current roadworthiness status cannot be confirmed as satisfactory on the basis of the MOT history alone. The trend between the 2022 double-entry and the 2025 fail is ambiguous; the record shows two clean passes bookending an unrecorded rectification, followed by a fresh failure eight months after the previous pass. Without itemised defect data, the cause of the latest failure remains undisclosed. Recorded mileage stands at 58,726 miles across approximately nineteen years, equating to around 3,091 miles per year on average. This is notably low for a 2007 commercial platform, suggesting either light use or extended periods of standing. The annual MOT file does not include a consistent mileage progression between tests, so it is not possible to verify whether the vehicle has been in regular use or has covered typical road mileage. Periods of inactivity on a van of this age commonly lead to degraded braking components, perished rubber, seized calipers and surface corrosion under the bodywork, all of which the MOT entries do not capture in detail. Given the December 2025 failure and the absence of any advisory history, a physical inspection is essential before purchase. Particular attention should be paid to the braking system, including caliper operation, disc condition and hydraulic lines, as commercial vehicles with low recorded mileage frequently suffer from binding or seized mechanisms through lack of use. The suspension, including coil springs, dampers and bushes, should be examined for corrosion and wear, and the underside of the body, chassis rails and outriggers must be checked for structural rust, which is common on Panel vans of this vintage. Tyres should be inspected for age-related cracking regardless of tread depth, and the exhaust system assessed for corrosion at joints and hangers. Until the cause of the most recent failure is identified and rectified, the vehicle's roadworthiness remains unverified. Buying score 60, risk Medium.
