2017 Peugeot Boxer 2.0L Diesel · FX67 NHZ

The vehicle's maintenance trend shows signs of worsening as of the most recent MOT on 14 October 2024. While the Peugeot Boxer passed the test at 69,251 miles, the tester flagged an extensive list of advisories that suggest a significant decline in upkeep compared to the clean records seen in 2021 and 2022. The sheer volume of issues identified in the 2024 test, ranging from braking components to tyre integrity and fluid leaks, indicates that the vehicle is entering a period of increased component fatigue. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a light-to-moderate usage pattern for a nine-year-old commercial vehicle. The vehicle has covered 69,251 miles, averaging roughly 7,700 miles per year. The progression from 32,156 miles in September 2020 to 69,251 miles in October 2024 shows a steady, predictable increase in distance traveled. There are no evidence of long periods of inactivity or sudden, excessive mileage spikes that would typically suggest heavy commercial abuse or neglected service intervals. A prospective buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the braking system and the steering assembly. The MOT history shows a recurring pattern of thinning brake pads, first noted in September 2023 and escalating to include worn, pitted, or scored discs on both the front and rear axles by October 2024. The tester also flagged a damaged power steering pipe or hose in both 2023 and 2024, which requires immediate verification to ensure no active leaks or pressure losses exist. The condition of the tyres also warrants close attention. The October 2024 test recorded multiple advisories for cracking, perishing, and cuts across all four tyres, including several requiring urgent attention. These defects suggest the rubber is aging or has suffered impact damage, which could compromise handling. Finally, the presence of an oil leak in the most recent test means a buyer should check the engine bay and underside for the source of the seepage to determine if it is a minor seal issue or a more significant mechanical fault.
