2013 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · KV63 WCM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive repair pattern rather than proactive care. The most recent test on August 13, 2025, at 143,117 miles passed after a failure just five days prior. This failure resulted from a fractured offside front coil spring alongside ongoing tyre and windscreen issues. While the vehicle has passed its latest inspection, the recurring failures suggest that the owner only addresses mechanical faults when they result in an immediate MOT failure. At 143,117 miles over thirteen years, the Peugeot Partner has averaged approximately 11,000 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a commercial vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent use between tests, with roughly 4,000 miles covered between April 2023 and April 2024, and another 2,200 miles between April 2024 and August 2025. This steady mileage suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and seals. A buyer must inspect the front suspension geometry closely, as the record shows multiple failures faults in this area. The tester noted a worn nearside front suspension arm bush in 2023, followed by separate instances of fractured coil springs in 2024 and 2025. These repeated failures indicate the suspension components are under significant stress or nearing their end. Additionally, the oil leak noted in April 2023 requires a physical inspection to determine if the seal or gasket failure has worsened or if repairs were actually made. The history also highlights a trend of neglect regarding basic consumables. The nearside and offside rear tyres were flagged for being near the legal limit or wearing uneven across both 2024 and 2025. The presence of cracking and perishing on the rubber suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary or used aged tyres. Before purchase, the buyer should check for structural corrosion on the sills and exhaust mounting points, as these are common failure points for this model that were not explicitly detailed in the recent advisories.
