2015 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · OU15 TVY

The vehicle presents a clear roadworthiness verdict of failing, as evidenced by the sequence of MOT results from 2020 to 2023. The most recent test in the September 2023 record at 52,000 miles yielded a PASSED result for the 2023-02-20 test, which is the only test that passed. However, the 2022-02-11 test at 70,174 miles failed due to an oil leak, a condition that has not been corrected since. This indicates a significant maintenance gap where the vehicle was not properly serviced between 2020 and 2022, likely due to ownership changes or lack of a trusted mechanic, a pattern that suggests the vehicle has not been maintained to a standard since 2020. The mileage data reveals a rapid accumulation of wear that is not characteristic of an 11-year-old vehicle. The 2020 test at 36,980 miles was a PASSED test, yet this was followed by a 2021-02-12 test at 53,167 miles that failed due to a deteriorating drive shaft joint. Between 2020 and 2021, the vehicle covered approximately 16,000 miles, which is far more than the typical 1,300–1,500 miles per year for a 2015 model. This rapid mileage increase, combined with the 2022 oil leak failure, suggests that the vehicle was not maintained to a standard during this period. The lack of a regular MOT record since 2020 implies that the vehicle has been driven with minimal attention, potentially leading to accelerated wear on critical components like the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain. Given the recurring faults, particularly the suspension arm ball joints, brake pad wear, and drive shaft joint issues, the vehicle is in a state of serious risk. The 2020-02-12 test failed due to a defective wiper blade and insufficient washer liquid, which are common consumables that require regular replacement. The 2021-02-12 test flagged a severely deteriorating constant velocity boot on the drive shaft, a component that can fail in a few years if not inspected. The 2023-02-20 test passed, but the 2022-02-11 test failed due to an oil leak that has not been addressed. This indicates that the vehicle has not been maintained to a standard since 2020, and the recurring faults suggest that basic upkeep was skipped. The vehicle is likely to fail a MOT in the coming months, especially given the high mileage and the history of failed tests in 2020 and 2021.
