2019 Peugeot Boxer 2.0L Diesel · MX69 DXF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive servicing. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 41,807 miles passed with only a minor advisory for thin front brake pads, previous records show a history of avoidableable mechanical failures. The trend appears stable following the failures in late 2023 and 2024, yet the recurring nature of the brake issues suggests that the owner only addresses faults when they threaten an MOT pass. At seven years old, the recorded mileage of 41,807 miles is notably low, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. This low usage suggests the van has not been subjected to heavy commercial cycles, though it increases the risk of component rubber degradation and brake corrosion. Between November 2023 and November 2024, the vehicle covered 7,653 miles, which is a slight spike above its annual average. The consistent low mileage between tests confirms the vehicle has likely sat for extended periods, which often leads to the mechanical issues noted in the record. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the braking system, as the record shows thinning thinning pads across multiple axles and a defective rear brake lever in November 2024. The tester specifically flagged abnormal movement in the brake levers, which indicates potential maladjustment or internal wear of the mechanical linkage. Additionally, the previous failure of the nearside rear anti-roll bar ball joint in 2023 suggests that the suspension components may be prone to accelerated wear or age-related perishleness despite the low total mileage. The engine management system requires scrutiny due to the November 2023 failure involving an inoperative malfunction indicator light and low oil levels. While these issues were cleared, the presence of an MIL fault often points to a lack of attention to maintenance intervals. The history of tyre defects, including a nail, insufficient tread depth, and a defective spare tyre, reinforces that basic consumable upkeep has been neglected. A physical check of current tyre condition and sidewalls is essential to ensure the low mileage has not masked underlying dry rot or structural damage.
