2017 Peugeot Boxer 2.0L Diesel · PE67 SZN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 129,740 miles resulted in a pass with only a non-excessive oil leak noted, the data shows a significant mechanical lapse in October 2023. That failure revealed multiple critical-related issues across the braking, suspension, and tyre systems, suggesting that the previous owner only addressed faults once they reached the point of legal non-compliance. At 129,740 miles over nine years, this Boxer has averaged approximately 14,400 miles per year, which is consistent with heavy commercial-duty commercial use. The record shows a rapid accumulation of mileage between October 2023 and November 2025, where the vehicle covered over 27,000 miles in just 24 months following a major MOT failure. This high annual mileage places considerable stress on drivetrain components and suspension bushings, which is evidenced by the recurring failures of front-end components and shock absorbers. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension assembly. The history flags the offside front ball joint dust cover as severely deteriorated in 2024 and the shock absorber as having a serious leak in 2023. You should check for signs of continued weeping or excessive play in the ball joints and steering arms. Additionally, the parking brake system failed for efficiency and inoperability in 2023, so the mechanical cables and rear drums must be verified to be properly adjusted and not currently binding or worn out. The persistent oil leak noted in both October 2024 and 2025 warrants a closer look. While the tester classified it as not excessive, its presence over two consecutive years suggests a slow seal or gasket failure that has not been rectified. Given the high mileage and the age of the vehicle, a structural check of the chassis for corrosion corrosion is also essential, as heavy-duty use often leads to accelerated wear in the mounting points and frame members.
