2013 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · OY13 USL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes following a single recorded failure. The most recent test conducted in August 2025 at 160,422 miles returned no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. This follows a period of three clean passes since 2022, suggesting that the previous owners have been proactive in addressing mechanical issues before they resulted in MOT failures. The mileage data reflects high but consistent annual usage, averaging approximately 12,340 miles per year over its thirteen-year life. Between June 2023 and August 2025, the vehicle covered 20,558 miles, showing a steady rate of operation typical of a commercial-use light van. The brief gap in March 2022, where the vehicle failed and then passed on the same day at 132,254 miles, suggests a specific fault was identified and rectified immediately rather than a sign of long-term mechanical neglect or neglect. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to high-mileage wear on this model. Given the 160,000-mile mark, close attention to the suspension geometry, control arm bushes, and coil springs is necessary as these parts often degrade under heavy loads. While the MOT record is currently clean, the structural integrity of the sills and rear mounting points should be checked for corrosion to ensure rust has not progressed beyond the surface level. Testing the braking system for binding calipers or excessive disc wear is also advisable, as the high mileage puts significant stress on the hydraulic components.
