2017 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · NV66 TBY

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the most recent inspection indicates a shift from a clean record to emerging mechanical wear. After several consecutive defect-free passes between 2019 and 2024, the November 2025 test at 46,039 miles introduced three distinct advisories. This suggests that while the vehicle has been well-maintained in the past, it is now entering a phase where age-related fatigue and component degradation require proactive attention before the next test. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old van, averaging approximately 5,115 miles per year. The data shows a consistent pattern of use between June 2023 and December 2024, where the vehicle covered roughly 5,000 miles in eighteen months. However, a significant jump of 5,837 miles occurred between December 2024 and November 2025. While the low annual mileage generally preserves the life of the drivetrain and engine, it can lead to the drying of rubber components and seals due to long periods of less active use. A buyer should specifically inspect the exhaust flex pipe, as the minor leak flagged in the 2025 test will likely worsen and lead to an emissions failure if not replaced. The offside front anti-roll bar ball joint shows slight play, which is a common sign of suspension wear that should be monitored for increased clunking or handling instability. Additionally, the inoperative offside rear registration plate lamp needs a bulb replacement to ensure legal compliance. Given the low mileage, a physical check of the brake discs for corrosion or pitting is wise, as stationary vehicles often suffer more from surface rust than high-mileage counterparts.
