2013 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · ML13 PLZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT data available. The last recorded test, conducted in November 2021 at 88,471 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical and safety components met the minimum standard at that time. However, given that over four years have elapsed since this recorded test, the vehicle is now significantly overdue for an MOT and requires an immediate inspection to determine its current legal road status. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. There was a notable gap of 16,584 miles between April 2019 and November 2020, followed by a more rapid accumulation of 8,216 miles between November 2020 and 2021. This steady usage suggests the vehicle has been used regularly rather than left stationary for long periods, which often helps prevent the premature failure of rubber-based components and fluid seals that degrade over time despite low mechanical wear. A physical inspection should focus on the slight oil leak noted during the 2020 test at 80,255 miles to ensure it has not worsened into a significant gasket or seal failure. The 2019 failure due to multiple lighting issues and a structural cut in the offside rear tyre indicates a past lapse in basic exterior maintenance and pre-test checks. Because the vehicle is an age-related Peugeot Partner, the buyer must also check for structural corrosion on the sills and the condition of the suspension bushes, as these are common points of failure on this model regardless of mileage.
