2020 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · CK70 AEO

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-10-13 at 38,870 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status at the time of testing. However, the prior year’s MOT history reveals two consecutive failures on 2024-10-14 (27,655 miles) and 2023-10-04 (22,021 miles), both without recorded defects. While the latest test suggests resolution of prior issues, the pattern of repeated failures without explicit mechanical notes raises questions about underlying maintenance practices. The absence of defects in the most recent test does not fully clarify whether the vehicle has been consistently well-maintained or if unresolved problems were addressed post-failure. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,478 miles annually. From 2023-10-04 (22,021 miles) to 2025-10-13 (38,870 miles), the vehicle accrued 16,849 miles over 24 months, reflecting steady but not excessive wear. Notably, the 2024-10-14 failure occurred just two days after a pass at the same mileage, suggesting potential issues with testing procedures or rapid retesting to meet legal requirements. The lack of defect details in these records limits definitive analysis, but the frequency of failures implies possible neglect or unresolved mechanical concerns. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the suspension, brakes, and exhaust systems, as these are common areas for hidden deterioration. The absence of recorded defects in the latest MOT does not preclude the need for scrutiny of components like coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion in structural panels. Additionally, verifying service history for repairs following the 2024 and 2023 failures would provide clarity on whether recurring issues were adequately resolved. While the vehicle appears roadworthy now, its MOT history underscores the importance of independent assessment to confirm long-term reliability.
