2011 Peugeot 407 2.0L Diesel · MF11 RMZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the consecutive clean passes in its most recent MOT tests. The most recent inspection conducted in April 2023 at 154,294 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car met all minimum safety standards at that time. While a single failure occurred in June 2021, the immediate pass the following day suggests that the owner addressed the specific issue promptly to maintain legal road use. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. The record shows a steady accumulation of 21,816 miles between April 2022 and April 2023, following an 8,569-mile interval between June 2021 and April 2022. This regularity suggests the car is used regularly rather than sitting idle for long periods, which helps prevent internal component degradation and seal perishability. However, since the last recorded test was performed in April 2023, the vehicle is now over three years overdue for an MOT, necessitating an immediate inspection to identify any recent degradation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and steering components, which are common wear points on the Peugeot 407 at this high mileage. Given the 154,000-mile mark, rubber bushings on control arms and drop links should be checked for tearing or excessive play. You should also examine for structural corrosion on the subframe and exhaust mounting points, as the MOT record does not show emerging rust. Because the vehicle has covered significant distances, checking brake caliper condition and pad thickness is vital to ensure no significant wear has developed since the last official test.
