2015 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · CE15 TCX

The 2026‑04‑27 MOT passed the vehicle, yet the tester flagged offside rear tyre perishing, near‑side front tyre wear close to the legal limit and parking brake efficiency just meeting the requirement, indicating that the braking system needs adjustment. Overall the roadworthiness status is borderline, as the recent pass confirms no major mechanical failure, but the recurring tyre and brake advisories suggest ongoing maintenance attention. The maintenance trend appears stable, with no severe defects recorded since the 2024 test. Mileage has risen from 64,424 miles in May 2019 to 100,329 miles in April 2026, averaging roughly 9,121 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for an 11‑year‑old commercial van. A notable anomaly occurs between the 2018 test at 98,254 miles and the 2019 test at 64,424 miles, representing a drop of 33,830 miles that likely reflects a data entry error or a period of inactivity rather than genuine mileage reduction. The subsequent steady climb from 64,424 miles in 2019 to 100,329 miles in 2026 shows consistent annual accumulation without abrupt spikes. A buyer should inspect the suspension geometry and bush condition, as repeated offside rear tyre perishing and worn edge tyres indicate uneven wear and possible mis‑alignment. The rear brake discs, documented as pitted or scored in every test since 2023, merit close visual examination for cracks or excessive wear that could compromise braking performance. Parking brake efficiency failures and the earlier binding rear brake advisory point to the need to test the parking brake mechanism and rear calipers for free movement and proper adjustment. Further inspection must include a thorough check of the chassis for structural rust, especially around wheel arches and the underbody, given the history of seat belt fitting issues and door handle deficiencies that suggest compromised mounting points. Verification of suspension ball joint play, particularly the lower suspension ball joint noted in the 2018 failure, and assessment of the rear brake assembly for metal‑to‑metal wear are essential to confirm that the vehicle can be safely operated.
