2021 Peugeot Partner 1.5L Diesel · NV70 KPT

The 2021 Peugeot Partner has maintained a clean MOT history with no defects recorded across the last three tests, most recently passing on 10 December 2025 at 73,865 miles. This suggests a stable roadworthiness trend, though the absence of advisories or minor faults means no recurring issues have been formally noted by the tester. The most recent test was conducted just seven months ago, which is acceptable but not optimal—any vehicle over 12 months out of MOT should be treated with heightened scrutiny, especially given the high mileage. The lack of advisory notes also implies that even if there were borderline conditions (such as worn suspension bushes or minor corrosion), they were not severe enough to warrant a fail or advisory at the time of testing. The mileage progression reveals a consistent and relatively aggressive usage pattern, averaging around 14,773 miles annually. This is well above the typical UK average for a vehicle of this age, indicating frequent use that will have accelerated wear on high-stress components like brakes, tyres, and suspension. Notably, there is a 17-day gap between the January 2024 and December 2024 tests, which is unusual for a vehicle with this mileage accumulation—such a delay suggests either a period of low usage or an oversight in scheduling. The most recent test was conducted just before the current date, which is acceptable but not ideal for a vehicle with this mileage, as wear could have developed since then. Given the lack of MOT advisories or defects, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should be the suspension and steering components, which are often the first to degrade under high mileage. Check for uneven tyre wear, which could indicate worn suspension bushes or misaligned wheels. The brakes should be inspected for uneven pad thickness or glazing, as high mileage increases the risk of binding calipers or warped discs. Corrosion is another critical area—examine the wheel arches, sills, and underbody for rust, particularly if the vehicle has been driven in wet or salted conditions. The exhaust system should also be scrutinised for leaks or excessive sagging, as these are common failure points under heavy usage. While the MOT record shows no failures, these components are the most likely to have accumulated wear beyond what a tester might have detected in a brief inspection.
