2021 Peugeot Rifter Allure Premium B-HDI SS 1.5L Diesel · DV21 WFC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The latest test in April 2026 at 31,836 miles resulted in a pass but introduced an advisory for thin front brake pads. This follows a pattern of failing on minor components in previous years, suggesting the owner only addresses mechanical issues once they reach an MOT threshold rather than performing preventative replacements during annual servicing. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. Between the April 2024 test at 14,522 miles and the April 2025 test at 23,564 miles, the car covered 9,042 miles, indicating a period of higher usage. This low annual mileage generally limits wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though the record shows that rubber components like tyres have suffered from age orrelated neglect despite the low distance driven. A buyer should inspect the front braking system immediately, as the April 2026 advisory confirms the pads are nearing exhaustion. The 2024 failure highlighted uneven tyre wear on the offside rear tyre and physical damage to the nearside rear tyre, which may indicate an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. Additionally, verify the condition of the nearside wiper blade, which previously failed the test in 2025, to ensure the replacement was effective and does not currently obscure visibility.
