2014 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · OV14 ABO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on June 29, 2026 at 134,093 miles. However, the maintenance history reveals a reactive repair pattern rather than proactive care. A failure just four days prior to this pass highlighted multiple safety concerns, including fractured offside front and rear coil springs, inoperative position lamps, and critically worn tyres. While these issues were rectified to achieve the pass, the recurring failures suggest the owner only addresses mechanical faults once they trigger an MOT failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per year. The record shows steady usage, climbing from 54,478 miles in 2018 to over 134,000 miles in 2026. This consistent mileage indicates the vehicle is used regularly, which is generally beneficial for engine seals and rubber components, though the rapid jump of nearly 9,000 miles between the 2025 and 2026 tests has likely placed significant stress on the suspension and braking systems. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the suspension geometry. Given the recent failure of both front and rear coil springs, there is a high probability that related bushes and shock absorbers are nearing end of life. The history also shows a persistent trend of uneven wear on inner and outer edges, noted in 2021, 2022, and 2024. This points toward potential alignment issues or worn suspension components that have not been fully diagnosed or corrected. The braking system requires further scrutiny. The 2019 failure flagged thin brake pads and pitted discs, and while the recent test showed no defects, the high mileage suggests these components may be approaching another replacement interval. Additionally, the windscreen, which was noted for damage in both 2024 and 2025, should be checked for new cracks that might now compromise the structural integrity of the glass. The frequent history of bulb failures and deteriorating registration plates suggests a lack of basic electrical maintenance.
