2015 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · MW15 YGO

The 2015 Peugeot Partner presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a fully clean pass recorded on 28 June 2025 at 135,485 miles. This is a significant turnaround from the preceding two years, where the vehicle accumulated a cluster of advisories and minor failures. The most recent test, conducted just under a year ago, shows zero defects, indicating that the immediate mechanical concerns flagged in mid-2024 have been addressed. However, the record reveals a pattern of deferred consumable replacement, particularly around tyre condition, which a buyer should view as a cautionary signal regarding the previous owner's attentiveness to basic upkeep. The vehicle has covered 135,485 miles over roughly eleven years, averaging approximately 12,317 miles annually, which sits on the higher side for a light commercial van of this age. The mileage progression is consistent and well-documented, with no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes that would suggest a rolled-back odometer or prolonged periods of disuse. The annual tests show steady accumulation from 109,854 miles in June 2022 to 127,220 miles in June 2024, then a more modest gain of 8,265 miles over the following twelve months, suggesting recent use may have shifted toward shorter, local journeys. The 2024 test at 127,220 miles is the most technically revealing entry. The tester flagged worn anti-roll bar linkage bushes and drop link ball joints on both front sides, play in the nearside steering rack inner joint, and a severely deteriorated constant velocity boot on the offside front driveshaft. These are not trivial items. A split CV boot allows grease to escape and water to ingress, accelerating joint wear and risking catastrophic failure if left unattended. Steering rack play directly affects precision and safety under load. The fact that these items do not appear in the 2025 record suggests they were repaired or replaced, but a buyer should still physically check the CV boot condition, steering rack gaiter integrity, and front suspension bushings for fresh grease or signs of recent disturbance. Tyre wear is a recurring theme across multiple tests. The vehicle failed in June 2022 on both front tyres for cuts deep enough to expose cords, and advisories for worn tread edges appeared again in 2024 across three of four tyres. Failing twice on tyre condition within two years suggests basic visual checks were skipped between services. A buyer should carefully inspect all four tyres for uneven wear patterns that could point to misalignment or worn suspension geometry. The braking system and exhaust emissions have remained consistently compliant, which is reassuring, but the front end demands the closest scrutiny given the history of linkage and steering defects.
