2015 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · CU65 DTY

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 8 May 2026 with no defects recorded. While the two most recent tests indicate a stable current condition, the broader history reveals a fluctuating maintenance trend. Previous failures in 2023 and 2022 were primarily related to electrical faults and suspension leaks, suggesting a reactive rather than proactive approach to maintenance. However, the absence of advisories in the last two years suggests that these specific issues have been addressed and the vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state. With a recorded mileage of 152,455 miles over eleven years, this vehicle has averaged approximately 13,860 miles per year. This is considered high usage for a commercial vehicle of this age and implies significant wear on all major mechanical consumables. Prospective buyers should expect accelerated degradation of the drivetrain, engine mounts, and braking system. The high mileage suggests the vehicle has likely been used for intensive commercial duties, which often places greater stress on the structural integrity of the chassis and the longevity of the suspension components. Particular attention must be paid to the suspension system given the history of fluid leaks across the front and rear shock absorbers. During a test drive, listen for clunks or knocks over uneven surfaces and observe if the vehicle exhibits excessive bouncing or instability under braking. The previous advisories regarding perishing and cracking on the rear tyres indicate a risk of rubber degradation; inspect the sidewalls closely for fine cracks or bulges that could lead to structural failure. Ensure the current tyres have sufficient tread depth and are not aged beyond five years, regardless of the remaining tread. Given the high mileage and the history of multiple lighting and horn failures, a comprehensive electrical check is essential to ensure no underlying wiring issues exist. You should also verify the service history for critical long-term maintenance items, specifically the timing belt and water pump intervals, as these are vital for engine survival at this mileage. Inspect the brake discs for significant lip wear or corrosion and check for any signs of binding calipers. Finally, examine the underside for structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and chassis rails, which is common in high-mileage commercial vehicles of this era.
