2022 Peugeot Partner Asphalt Premium Bhdi 1.5L Diesel · LL72 OCF

A remarkably clean DVSA record accompanies this 2022 Peugeot Partner Asphalt Premium BHDi, with the most recent MOT test on 02 October 2025 passing without a single advisory or defect noted. This absence of flagged issues at the three-year point is a strong indicator of sound mechanical condition, suggesting the braking, suspension, exhaust, lighting, and structural integrity systems were all found to be within prescribed tolerances. There are no historic advisories to draw upon for trend analysis, as the tester raised no comments whatsoever, which for a commercial-derived van of this age points to either genuinely healthy components or relatively light duty cycle wear. The lack of any recorded corrosion, component deterioration, or fluid leak advisories is particularly reassuring given the typical working environment such vehicles endure. Annual mileage accumulation of around 9,319 miles over the four-year life of this Partner sits comfortably within expected parameters for a small diesel commercial platform, neither suggesting long periods of inactivity nor heavy commercial abuse. The figure is consistent with a mixed-use profile, possibly combining light trade duties, family transport, or fleet deployment, and it implies that consumable wear on items such as brake pads, discs, clutch, and dual-mass flywheel should remain moderate rather than approaching end-of-life thresholds. The continuous and consistent testing history with no gaps is itself a useful data point, ruling out extended periods off the road that could otherwise mask developing faults or allow components such as brake discs to corrode, tyres to develop flat spots, or diesel particulate filter regeneration cycles to be missed. For a prospective buyer conducting a physical inspection, attention should still focus on areas that commonly affect the Partner platform even when not flagged at MOT, particularly the rear leaf spring shackles and bushes which can deteriorate under load, and the front wishbone rear bushes which are prone to splitting on this generation. A test drive over uneven surfaces should be undertaken with audio muted, listening carefully for clonks or knocks from the front suspension over speed humps and potholes, as well as any rear axle chatter suggesting worn spring shackle pins. Steering should be assessed for vagueness on centre or any knocking through the column when traversing broken tarmac, which could indicate top mounts or drop link wear not yet severe enough to fail an MOT but worth monitoring. The braking system, whilst passing cleanly, should still be evaluated for hot judder or pedal pulsation under firm application, as warped front discs are a known issue on higher-mileage Partners and would not necessarily trigger a failure at the test threshold. Inspect the underside thoroughly for any oil seepage from the engine sump, turbo oil feed lines, and the common-rail injector seal area, as these BHDi units can develop minor leaks that progress over time. Verify that the diesel particulate filter has been regenerating successfully by checking for any intermittent loss of power or glow plug warning illumination, and confirm the timing belt or chain service interval status given the vehicle is approaching the mileage band where drive-belt replacement becomes material. Finally, examine the load floor and rear barn doors for the typical wear and minor corrosion associated with commercial use, ensuring the door hinges operate smoothly and the sliding side door mechanism remains positive in its action.
