2015 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · MM65 WFO

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a pass on November 21, 2025 at 149,054 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a period of significant mechanical neglect immediately prior to that test. Just seven days earlier, on November 14, 2025, the car failed with just five miles due to multiple critical safety defects, including a fractured offside front coil spring, a collapsed rear wishbone bush, and a snapped handbrake cable. While these issues were rectified to achieve the pass, they indicate a reactive maintenance approach. With 149,054 miles recorded over eleven years, the Peugeot averages approximately 13,550 miles per year. This usage is consistent with a commercial vehicle profile and suggests significant wear on heavy-duty components across the chassis. Between November 2024 and November 2025, the vehicle covered 6,415 miles, showing a consistent but slightly lower annual mileage rate compared to its long-term average. The high cumulative mileage means the vehicle is used regularly for work, which places constant stress on the suspension-related components and the braking system. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension geometry and rear bushings. The 2025 failure regarding the collapsed wishbone bush and fractured spring suggests that the rubber components and metal springs are reaching the end of their fatigue life. You should verify the handbrake tension and ensure the cable was properly replaced rather than adjusted, as the previous failure indicated a total mechanical snap. Given the history of failed light bulbs and washer pumps, a full electrical check of the exterior lighting circuit is necessary to ensure no further repairs are required before the next MOT.
