2014 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · PX14 CVP

The 2014 Peugeot Boxer has demonstrated a consistent roadworthiness record across all four MOT tests, with no defects or advisories recorded in the most recent cycle ending on 2025-07-15 at 25,301 miles. This suggests the vehicle has undergone regular, compliant maintenance without any major mechanical or structural failures during the testing period. The absence of recurring issues—such as repeated brake binding, suspension wear, or corrosion-related faults—implies that previous owners adhered to basic upkeep, though this does not guarantee undetected wear in non-MOT-tested areas like internal suspension bushes or drivetrain components. The latest test’s clean pass aligns with current DVSA standards, but the vehicle’s age (12 years) and low mileage (2,108 miles annually) necessitate a thorough independent inspection to verify long-term integrity. The mileage pattern reveals an unusual discrepancy, with a significant jump from 31,572 miles in July 2022 to 34,474 miles in July 2023—a 2,902-mile increase in just under a year, followed by a sharp drop to 23,380 miles by July 2024. This suggests either prolonged storage or inconsistent usage, which could accelerate wear on fluids, seals, and rubber components. The final 2,000 miles between July 2024 and July 2025 indicate minimal recent activity, raising questions about whether the vehicle was actively driven or left stationary. Such fluctuations often correlate with neglected servicing, particularly for items like brake fluid, power steering reservoirs, and battery health, all of which degrade over time even when unused. Given the clean MOT history, the primary focus of an in-person inspection should centre on components not routinely tested, such as the suspension’s rubber bushes and coil springs for cracking or perished rubber, and the drivetrain for fluid leaks or corrosion. The brakes, while not flagged, warrant scrutiny for uneven wear or glazing, particularly if the vehicle has been stored for extended periods, as moisture can accelerate rust in caliper pistons or disc surfaces. Structural integrity—especially underbody corrosion around the sills, wheel arches, and exhaust mounts—must be examined, as the low mileage does not negate environmental degradation. Finally, verify the integrity of the exhaust system for leaks or damaged hangers, as these are common failure points in older commercial vehicles, even when emissions tests pass.
