2017 Peugeot Bailey 2.0L Diesel · CU17 AWA

The vehicle presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 27 March 2026 at 29,276 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior examinations show a consistent clean history apart from an anomalous failure the DVSA logged on 25 March 2025 at 28,692 miles that listed no defects, and the tester issued a pass on the same date at identical mileage. This pattern indicates no worsening mechanical condition and suggests the failure stemmed from an administrative or presentation issue rather than a fault in suspension, brakes, or structural integrity. Mileage accumulation sits well below typical expectations for a nine year old 2017 Peugeot Bailey, averaging roughly 3,250 miles per year. The record shows 23,091 miles at the 3 April 2023 test, rising to 27,912 miles by 19 March 2024, then only 28,692 miles on 25 March 2025 and 29,276 miles on 27 March 2026. Recent annual increments of under 800 miles imply prolonged periods of inactivity. Such low use combined with a clean MOT ledger suggests previous owners kept basic consumable wear minimal, though sparse testing intervals leave limited longitudinal data on component degradation. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of age related components that MOT tests may not flag when faults are absent. The tester recorded no advisories on coil springs, suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion across all entries. Standing vehicles often develop perished rubber, binding calipers, and surface rust on structural members. The unexplained failure on 25 March 2025 warrants a DVSA certificate check to confirm no omitted defect. Given the low annual mileage, examine tyres for sidewall cracking and check fluid conditions before purchase.
