Our Verdict

Proceed with caution due to high annual

When inspecting this specific 1.6L diesel Expert, focus heavily on the condition of the tyres and the wheel alignment. The MOT history shows repeated failures for tyres being worn close to the legal limit or having cuts and nails, which occurred in both 2024 and 2025. You should check if the recent repairs addressed the 'worn on edge' issue, as this can indicate underlying suspension or tracking problems.

Ask the seller for evidence of recent tyre replacements and check the tread depth across all four tyres. Given the high mileage, also request service records to ensure the diesel engine has been maintained according to the manufacturer's schedule. Because this vehicle has been driven much more than the typical Peugeot Expert, checking the clutch and gearbox smoothness is also recommended.

As a 1560cc diesel, this Peugeot Expert is designed for higher mileage, though its fuel economy will depend heavily on load and driving style. Tax and insurance groups for this model vary, but you should verify the specific band for this 2018 registration.

Maintenance costs may be influenced by the high mileage, with components like brakes, suspension, and tyres requiring more frequent attention. Based on the current usage patterns, expect regular maintenance intervals to be a significant part of your annual budget.

Pay close attention to the tyres and wheels. The MOT history for MJ18FWS specifically notes offside front tyres worn on the edge and offside rear nails in 2024 and 2025. This pattern warrants a check of the suspension components, such as wishbones and bushings, to ensure the vehicle tracks straight.

Additionally, check all exterior lighting. The 2025 MOT failure included non-working position lamps on both the nearside and offside front. Ensure all bulbs and electrical connections are functioning correctly. Finally, while not noted in this vehicle's specific history, the model aggregate data suggests checking headlamps, drive shaft joints, and anti-roll bars, as these are common failure points for the Peugeot Expert across the wider fleet.

This 2018 Peugeot Expert, finished in white, has covered 121,332 miles since its registration in April 2018. This represents an average annual mileage of approximately 20,222 miles, which is significantly higher than the model average of 9,748 miles. The MOT history shows a pattern of failures related to tyres and lighting in the last two testing cycles.

Aggregate data for this model shows a 76.0% MOT pass rate, with common failures occurring in headlamps, drive shaft joints, and anti-roll bars.
