2012 Peugeot Expert 1.6L Diesel · EF12 ABX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent inspection without any recorded defects. The latest test on 8 August 2025 at 156,043 miles resulted in a pass immediately following a failure on the same day at the same mileage. This suggests the previous owner was proactive in rectifying issues identified by the tester. Since that corrective action, the vehicle has maintained a clean record, indicating that components currently meet minimum standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical commercial use for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 11,146 miles per year. Between August 2023 and August 2024, the van covered 8,049 miles, while it covered 6,444 miles in the year leading up to the August 2025 test. These intervals show regular usage rather than long periods of neglect or sudden bursts of high mileage. The steady accumulation suggests the engine and drivetrain are regularly exercised, avoiding the accelerated degradation and seal failure associated with long periods of standing. While the current record is clean, the recurring failures in August 2023 and August 2025 indicate the vehicle occasionally operates on the margin of compliance. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension components, specifically looking for worn bushes or leaking dampers, as these are common points of failure on the Peugeot Expert. Given the high mileage, a close check of the brake discs for thinning and the condition of the calipers is also necessary to ensure no binding is developing between annual tests.
