2014 Peugeot Bipper 1.2L Diesel · CX14 XHJ

The Peugeot Bipro is currently roadworthy following its most recent test in January 2026, but the maintenance trend appears reactive rather than proactive. While it passed the latest inspection, the previous year showed a pattern of mechanical neglect where components were only addressed after failing an MOT test. The overall condition suggests a vehicle that is driven until parts reach a point of failure rather than undergoing scheduled preventative maintenance. The vehicle's mileage is significantly high for its 12-year age, averaging over 12,000 miles per year. There has been a consistent and rapid accumulation of miles, with over 12,000 miles covered between January 2024 and January 2025, and another 13,675 miles recorded in the final year. This high level of usage places constant stress on the drivetrain and suspension components, which is reflected in the recurring mechanical issues noted in the service history. A prospective buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension, as this area has shown repeated weaknesses. Specifically, the offside front shock absorber progressed from light misting to a serious fluid leak, and the Macpherson strut mounting was previously flagged for damage. The buyer should also inspect the braking system thoroughly, as the history indicates thin pads and worn, pitted discs that required replacement only after a test failure. Furthermore, the windscreen and wiper assembly should be inspected, as damage has been a persistent issue across three consecutive years. The most recent test also highlighted both front tyres being worn unevenly on the edges, which may indicate an alignment issue or worn-out suspensioning components. A thorough check of the carbody is necessary to ensure no structural corrosion has developed given the high mileage and age.
