2015 Peugeot Bipper 1.2L Diesel · PY65 AVN

The vehicle is roadworthy as of the 22 November 2025 MOT, where it passed at 127,483 miles. The recent failure on 17 November 2025 for a fractured off‑side front coil spring and excessive rear shock‑bush wear shows the maintenance trend is edging towards deterioration rather than improvement, despite the subsequent pass. Mileage has risen from 106,415 miles in November 2023 to 127,483 miles in November 2025, averaging roughly 11,500 miles per year – a typical figure for an eleven‑year‑old car. The incremental increase of about 9,600 miles between November 2023 and November 2024 and roughly 11,300 miles between November 2024 and November 2025 suggests steady use with no long periods of inactivity or sudden spikes. A prospective buyer should concentrate on the suspension and tyre condition. Inspect both front coil springs for corrosion or hidden cracks, verify that the fractured off‑side front spring has been correctly replaced, and check rear shock absorber bushes for excessive wear. The anti‑roll‑bar ball‑joint dust covers were recorded as severely deteriorated in November 2024; these should be examined for looseness or rust. Wheel bearings on the off‑side front wheel showed slight play and must be assessed for smooth rotation. The tyre bulge noted on the off‑side rear inner tyre in November 2023, together with tread wear close to legal limits on the front tyres, warrants a thorough visual and tread‑depth check. Finally, the oil leak flagged on several occasions, although not excessive, should be located and confirmed as resolved to avoid future engine issues.
