2019 Peugeot Boxer 2.0L Diesel · HX19 DNJ

The most recent MOT on 28 Jan 2026 at 69,530 miles passed with no defects, indicating the vehicle currently meets legal standards. However a failure on 27 Jan 2026 at 69,528 miles revealed binding rear brakes, inoperative parking brake on one side, damaged power‑steering hose and outline‑lamp defects, suggesting recent remedial work may have been carried out. The 69,530‑mile reading equates to roughly 9,933 miles per year, which aligns with the typical usage for a 2019 model. Mileage has risen steadily from 2,562 miles in March 2020 to 69,530 miles in January 2026, with no prolonged periods of zero activity recorded; the jump from 7,828 miles in March 2021 to 41,860 miles in February 2024 shows accelerated use but remains within normal bounds for a commercial van of this age. The recurring parking‑brake deficiency and power‑steering hose damage point to potential suspension and steering component wear; the outline‑lamp failures indicate wiring or lamp housing corrosion that should be examined. The earlier brake efficiency and binding‑caliper issues suggest a need to inspect rear brake discs, pads, and suspension bushes, while the tyre wear recorded at 29,379 miles and 41,860 miles implies checking tyre tread depth, wheel alignment and suspension condition. Structural and corrosion checks: No structural rust was noted in any test, and the exhaust emissions were within limits on the latest pass, but the presence of a damaged power‑steering hose and previous outline‑lamp defects warrants a close visual inspection of the chassis, especially around the rear wheel arches and underbody, to confirm there is no hidden corrosion affecting structural integrity.
