Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, maintaining a consistent pass record over the last three years. The most recent test on 25 June 2025 at 132,264 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite an initial failure on the same day. This suggests the owner was willing to rectify any identified issues immediately to ensure compliance, as the car has returned a clean sheet for every inspection conducted since July 2022. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 9,450 miles per year. Between July 2022 at 97,501 miles and June 2025 at 132,264 miles, the car covered 34,763 miles, indicating a steady usage pattern rather than long periods of stagnation or heavy commercial strain. The interval between the 2024 and 2025 tests shows a 14,506 mile gap, which aligns with the annual average observed throughout the record. Given the lack of recurring mechanical advisories in the digital history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common Peugeot RCZ points of failure that do not always trigger an MOT failure. Prioritize an inspection of the rear suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, as these often perish at over 130,000 miles. Check check the brake discs for signs of uneven riding or excessive thinning, as the MOT only checks for functional efficiency rather than the overall condition of the consumable components.
