2018 Peugeot Expert 2.0L Diesel · MK18 FVR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass in November 2025, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. While the most recent test at 86,537 miles showed only a minor tyre defect, the failure just four miles prior indicates a significant backlog of neglected mechanical issues. The trend shows a recurring pattern of allowing wearable components to deteriorate, particularly within the braking and suspension systems, suggesting that the owner only addresses faults once they reach an MOT failure threshold rather than during scheduled service intervals. At 86,537 miles over eight years, the Peugeot Expert averages approximately 10,800 miles per year, which is consistent with typical commercial vehicle usage for its age. The data shows steady accumulation, with an 8,573-mile interval between November 2024 and November 2025, and another 6,522 miles between December 2023 and November 2024. This consistent mileage suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which explains the degradation of rubber components seen in the various advisory notes. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and braking assembly. The record flags a missing offside front steering rack gaiter and a severely deteriorated nearside front suspension arm ball joint dust cover in 2025, following a previous CV boot failure in 2024. These issues, combined with persistent pitting and scoring on brake discs noted across every test since 2022, indicate that the chassis and braking components are nearing the end of their service life. The oil leak noted in November 2025 also requires close monitoring to ensure it remains non-excessive and does not indicate a failing engine seal.
