2006 Peugeot Boxer 2.0L Diesel · CV06 FPA

The 2006 Peugeot Boxer presents a stable mechanical trend, passing its most recent MOT on 29 September 2023 at 155,834 miles with zero defects. The complete absence of advisories or failures in the last two recorded tests indicates a well-maintained vehicle with no immediate mechanical or structural red flags. This clean record suggests the previous owner addressed any minor consumable wear promptly. The mileage accumulation reveals a distinct pattern. Between the April 2022 test at 150,886 miles and the September 2023 test at 155,834 miles, the vehicle covered 4,948 miles over roughly 17 months. This equates to roughly 3,500 miles per year during this specific window, a notable drop from the vehicle's overall lifetime average of 7,792 miles per year. This suggests the van has seen significantly lighter use recently, potentially spending extended periods stationary. Despite the clean MOT record, a 20-year-old commercial vehicle demands a thorough physical inspection. Extended periods of standing can cause perishable components to deteriorate rapidly. A buyer must inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for age-related cracking, and check the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion that can lead to binding. Tyre sidewall cracking requires close scrutiny, as the rubber may look sound but lack structural integrity. Structural rust around the sills, outriggers, and floor pan also warrants a careful examination, as MOTs only assess corrosion within 30cm of structural mounting points.
