2014 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · FH14 ETY

The vehicle presents a concerning roadworthiness profile characterized by a recurring pattern of reactive maintenance rather than preventative care. While the most recent MOT test in October 2022 at 133,403 miles was a pass, it followed a failure just ten days prior at the same mileage. This indicates a significant investment was required to rectify multiple safety-critical defects, including shock absorbers and brake efficiency. The trend suggests that the owner only performs the minimum repairs necessary to pass testing rather than addressing underlying mechanical wear over time. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's twelve-year life span, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per annum. There is a notable gap in the data between the October 2022 test at 133,403 miles and the current date of June 2026. Because the vehicle has not undergone a recorded inspection in nearly four years, the current state of safety components is unknown. This lack of recent testing is a high-risk factor for a commercial vehicle of this age, as rubber components and braking systems have likely deteriorated significantly since the last 2022 entry. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and drivetrain components. The record shows a history of leaking nearside shock absorbers and worn suspension arm bushes, followed by a severely deteriorated offside front CV boot in late 2022. These areas should be checked for fresh fluid leaks, grease displacement, and excessive play. Additionally, the handbrake was flagged for low readings and poor efficiency across multiple tests, requiring a mechanical check to ensure the drums or shoes are not excessively worn or the cables not seized. Given the recurring issues with tyres worn to the legal limit and damaged lighting units, the general upkeep of the vehicle appears neglected. The structural integrity of the chassis and exhaust must be inspected for corrosion, as the Peugeot Boxer is prone to surface rust in key mounting points. Without a recent MOT to verify the current condition of the brakes and steering, the risk of encountering mechanical failure or immediate safety defects remains high.
