2017 Peugeot Boxer 2.0L Diesel · ML17 OAO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 16 May 2025 at 179,392 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2021, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is high for a nine year old vehicle, averaging nearly 20,000 miles per year. The accumulation has been steady, increasing by 12,232 miles between May 2022 and July 2023, and by another 12,227 miles by May 2025. Such high usage typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and suspension systems, though the lack of MOT advisories suggests these parts have been replaced or serviced as needed. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear areas that the MOT may not fully quantify. Given the 179,392 miles, check for play in the steering rack and the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs. While the record shows no structural failures, the chassis and underbody should be inspected for corrosion, particularly on the load-bearing areas common to the Boxer platform. Verify the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements, as these are critical intervals that MOT tests do not monitor. Inspect the brake discs for thinning and the tyres for uneven wear, which would indicate alignment issues. The absence of recorded faults over several years is positive, but the high mileage necessitates a thorough check of the engine's oil condition and overall drivetrain smoothness.
