2018 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · OU18 OSF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, following a clean MOT pass on 24 June 2025 at 72,365 miles. This represents an improving trend in maintenance after a period of recorded defects in late 2024. While the most recent test showed no mechanical or structural failures, the presence of advisories in the previous year indicates that the owner has addressed identified wear and tear issues before the latest inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old van, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. There is a notable gap in records between February 2022 at 60,609 miles and March 2023 at 68,579 miles, where the vehicle covered over 8,000 miles in just thirteen months. However, the usage has slowed significantly, with only 146 miles recorded between the October 2024 and June 2025 tests, suggesting the vehicle may currently be subject to intermittent use. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the underbody to monitor the general underbody corrosion noted in the October 2024 test. Although the 2025 pass suggests no immediate structural failure, rust on Peugeot Partners of this age can progress rapidly. The recurring rear brake binding issue recorded in 2024 also requires physical verification to ensure the calipers are not seizing, as this condition can lead to uneven pad wear and reduced braking efficiency if ignored. The suspension and drivetrain components also merit scrutiny. The offside front outer drive shaft CV boot was flagged as severely deteriorated in 2024 and should be checked for grease leakage or torn rubber. The repeated history of tyres worn on the outer edges across 2023 and 2024 indicates potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes, which should be verified during a test drive to prevent premature wear of new tyres.
