2021 Peugeot Partner 1.5L Diesel · FH70 SMO

The Peugeot Partner passed its most recent MOT on 5 January 2024 at 74,181 miles with no defects recorded, leaving it roadworthy on paper at that date. The maintenance trend cannot be judged as stable, worsening, or improving because only two entries exist and both fall on the same day. The paired failure and pass on 5 January 2024 at 74,180 and 74,181 miles show a same-day rejection followed immediately by clearance with no defects listed, a pattern consistent with an administrative or presentational error at the test centre rather than a repaired fault. The recorded mileage of 74,181 against a 2021 build means roughly 14,836 miles per year, high for a five-year-old van and pointing to steady commercial use. The history jumps from no earlier tests to the January 2024 pair, so the first three years of running are undocumented. A buyer should treat the missing 2021 to 2023 records as a gap that hides any early wear on suspension bushes, brake discs, or drivetrain components. Because the 2024 tests flagged nothing, no recurring mechanical or structural faults appear in the official data. The same-day fail with no defects means the buyer should obtain the original test certificate and confirm with the DVSA why the first entry was rejected. In person, check the front coil springs, rear brake calipers for binding, and underbody corrosion, as high annual mileage vans of this type commonly show unseen wear that a clean MOT does not capture.
