2010 Peugeot Expert 2.0L Diesel · GF10 AEE

The 2010 Peugeot Expert’s most recent MOT test on 2021-12-13 confirmed roadworthiness at 246,984 miles, though the preceding test just three days earlier—on 2021-12-10—resulted in an immediate failure without recorded defects. This abrupt reversal suggests either a minor oversight in test procedures or an undocumented mechanical issue resolved between tests. No further MOTs have been recorded since, meaning the vehicle has not undergone official inspection for nearly five years. Given the absence of defects in the final pass, there is no evidence of a worsening trend in major systems, but the lack of recent testing introduces uncertainty about current condition. The vehicle’s mileage of 246,984 miles over 16 years equates to approximately 15,436 miles annually, a rate significantly higher than average for its age. The gap between the 2021 failures and the final pass—just 108 miles—implies either rapid rectification of an undocumented issue or a procedural anomaly. Beyond this, the sparse MOT history offers little insight into long-term maintenance patterns, though the high mileage suggests accelerated wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components. The absence of earlier tests makes it impossible to assess whether earlier failures were recurrent or isolated. Given the lack of MOT history beyond 2021, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension integrity, particularly rear suspension bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Binding brakes or uneven wear on brake discs were not flagged in the final pass, but the abrupt failure suggests potential brake system inconsistencies warranting closer examination. Structural corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should also be checked, as this is a common concern for vehicles of this age and mileage. The absence of recent MOTs means no official verification of exhaust emissions or steering system condition exists, areas that may degrade over time without maintenance.
