2019 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · DK69 CSO

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend following an early mechanical failure. The most recent test conducted in January 2023 at 29,393 miles resulted in a pass with only a minor advisory regarding an offside front seat pad. This indicates that the primary structural and mechanical concerns identified in previous years have been addressed, and the vehicle has maintained a clean record for several consecutive inspections. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old van, averaging approximately 4,200 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between December 2019 and February 2021, where the vehicle covered only 4,769 miles in fourteen months. However, the mileage increased by 9,513 miles between January 2022 and January 2023. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it can lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals if the vehicle sits for long periods without movement. A buyer should physically inspect the rear suspension assembly, specifically the area where the January 2021 failure at 4,680 miles due to a broken leaf spring clamp and visible movement occurred. Although the vehicle passed since then, it is vital to ensure the fixings remain secure and free of stress fractures or corrosion. The recurring issue of loose seat cushions and damaged plastic covers noted in 2022 suggests the interior may have seen heavy or rough use, which warrants a check of the mounting bolts and the nearside retractable step to ensure the mechanism remains fully operational after its previous failure.
