2022 Peugeot Expert Prof Premium L2 B-HDI 1.5L Diesel · FY22 RGX

The most recent MOT, conducted on 4 March 2026 at 46,997 miles, returned a pass, but the advisory list reveals a vehicle that is now entering a phase of noticeable consumable wear. The maintenance trend is stable but demands attention. Both front and rear brake pads were flagged as wearing thin, and the rear brake discs were noted as worn, though not excessively. Both front tyres were worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge, indicating a combination of ageing and potential alignment or suspension geometry wear. The record suggests the vehicle has been driven enough to wear through a full set of front tyres and brake pads in the last 11,638 miles since the previous test, which is a typical wear rate for a commercial diesel van of this type. Mileage accumulation is broadly consistent with typical use. The van covered 21,638 miles in the year between the March 2025 test at 25,359 miles and the March 2026 test at 46,997 miles. That annual distance is slightly above the 11,749-mile average implied by the vehicle's age, pointing to sustained, regular use rather than long periods of standing. The 2025 test was exceptionally clean, with only a minor advisory for a deteriorated front registration plate, suggesting the van was in very good mechanical order at that point. The shift from a clean bill of health in 2025 to multiple wear-related advisories in 2026 is not alarming, but it does indicate that routine consumable replacement is now due. A buyer should focus the in-person inspection on the braking system and front suspension geometry. The rear brake discs were flagged as worn in March 2026, and the rear pads were also wearing thin, so the entire braking assembly needs careful measurement of pad thickness, disc condition, and caliper operation. The edge wear on both front tyres is a strong indicator of toe misalignment or worn suspension bushes and track rod ends. A four-wheel alignment check is advisable, along with a close visual inspection of the front suspension components for play or deterioration. The van's structural integrity appears sound given the absence of corrosion or structural advisories, but the front tyre wear pattern alone warrants a thorough mechanical inspection before purchase.
