2009 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · LS59 WKG

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history shows a persistent trend of deferred repairs regarding wear-related components. In the March March 2026 test at 119,472 miles, the Boxer passed despite a noted oil leak and wear on both front inner brake discs. While these issues did not cause failure, the record reveals a pattern of allowing mechanical degradation and minor corrosion to persist over several years without being proactively addressed by the previous owners. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 17-year-old commercial vehicle averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. Between March 2023 at 102,174 miles and March 2026 at 119,472 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 17,000 miles. This steady usage suggests regular operation rather than long periods of sitting de-rated. However, the low annual mileage relative to the age means that age-related decay of rubber components and metal surfaces is a greater concern than total distance driven. A buyer must focus specifically on the front lower suspension assembly, as the rear arm bushes have been flagged as worn or de-bonding since the 2023 test. These faults have remained unresolved for three years, indicating a potential lack of preventative maintenance on the steering and suspension geometry. The exhaust silencer has also shown progressive corrosion since early 2024; while it passed in 2025, the thinning metal suggests a structural failure of the exhaust system is likely in the near future. Physical inspection is required to verify the source of the oil leak noted in the most recent 2026 test to determine if it is a minor seal or a more significant gasket failure. Given that the front brake discs were noted as worn and corroded in both 2025 and 2026, the thickness of the remaining material and the condition of the calipers should be checked. The recurring condensation in the headlamps and discoloured indicators are minor cosmetic issues but contribute to the overall impression of a vehicle that has been maintained with minimal attention.
