2017 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · MW67 AEE

The 2017 Peugeot Partner has maintained a clean MOT record since its last test on 20 March 2025 , passing without defects at 169,867 miles . While the vehicle has failed twice in the past—once in February 2024 and again in December 2022 —both failures occurred at the same mileage (166,253 and 164,498 respectively) and were resolved without further issues in subsequent tests. The absence of recurring advisories or repeated failures suggests the vehicle was promptly addressed after each MOT failure, though the pattern of back-to-back tests at identical mileages raises questions about whether the vehicle was driven between tests or if the failures were administrative rather than mechanical. The most recent pass confirms the vehicle met all current roadworthiness standards, but the 14-month gap since the last test (as of July 2026) means it has been on the road for nearly a year without official verification of critical components like brakes, suspension, and emissions. The recorded mileage of 169,867 miles over nine years equates to an average of 18,874 miles annually , which is unusually high for a vehicle of this age. This suggests either consistent commercial or heavy private use, accelerating wear on high-stress parts such as tyres, brakes, and suspension. Notably, the mileage jumped 1,784 miles in just 14 days between the December 2022 failures (164,498 to 165,571), which is atypical for a vehicle undergoing MOT testing. This rapid accumulation could indicate the vehicle was driven between tests, potentially masking underlying issues. The lack of intermediate MOT records means there is no data on how the vehicle performed between tests, leaving gaps in its maintenance history. Given the history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the brakes , particularly the rear system, as the 2024 failure (though not detailed in the record) may have involved binding calipers or worn pads. The suspension bushes and coil springs should be closely examined for wear, especially given the high mileage, as these components degrade over time and can compromise handling and ride quality. Corrosion at wheel arches, subframes, and suspension mounts is also worth checking, as rust can compromise structural integrity. The exhaust system should be inspected for leaks or excessive corrosion, particularly around joints and mounts, while the tyres —failing twice on tread in the past—demand verification of remaining depth and uniformity. Finally, the emissions system (DPF if applicable, or catalytic converter) should be tested for efficiency, as MOT failures in this area often recur if not properly serviced.
