2009 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · ML09 JBU

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status but exhibits a maintenance trend that is reactive rather than proactive. While it passed its latest test on 21 May 2026 at 116,909 miles, this followed a failure just one day prior. That failure revealed significant issues including excessive engine oil leaks, a split front CV boot, and critically worn front brake pads. The recurring nature of brake-related failures across multiple years suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical components when they are on the point of total failure. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 116,909 miles represents an average of approximately 6,877 miles per year, which is consistent with a light-use commercial vehicle. The data shows a steady usage pattern, with roughly 3,600 miles covered between the June 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 2,600 miles between May 2025 and May 2026. This low annual mileage does not prevent the degradation of rubber components and seals, which are showing clear age-related wear. A buyer must personally inspect the engine front area for the extent of the oil leak noted in May 2026, as excessive leaking can indicate a failing crankshaft seal or gasket failure. The history shows a persistent pattern of suspension wear, with anti-roll bar linkages and suspension arm ball joints flagged in 2024, which should be checked for play or perished boots. Additionally, the recurring inner-edge wear on the offside rear tyre indicates a potential alignment issue or worn shock absorber that remains unaddressed despite the repeated tyre damage.
