2018 Peugeot Expert 1.6L Diesel · MW18 FHA

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive service approach. The most recent test in October 2023 at 94,073 miles resulted in a pass following a failure just one week prior. That failure originated from a nearside rear tyre with tread depth below the legal limit and a defective side repeater lens. While these issues were rectified quickly, the pattern suggests the owner only addresses mechanical faults when specifically prompted by an MOT failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical commercial-use vehicle profile, averaging approximately 11,700 miles per year over its eight-year life. Between May 2021 at 67,843 miles and June 2022 at 80,938 miles, the vehicle covered over 13,000 miles in a single year. The subsequent gap of 13,135 miles between June 2022 and October 2023 shows a steady usage pattern rather than long periods of inactivity. This consistent mileage typically puts predictable wear on heavy-duty suspension components and drivetrain components. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system and suspension, as the record previously flagged thin rear brake pads in 2021 and a cut tyre in 2023. Given the age and mileage of the Peugeot Expert, checking for perished rubber bushes in the suspension control arms is essential, as these are common points of failure on this platform. The buyer should also inspect the underbody for signs of structural corrosion to ensure the frame integrity remains sound despite the lack of recorded advisories in the most recent tests.
