Our Verdict
Proceed with extreme caution due to the
When viewing this vehicle, prioritise a thorough inspection of the underside. The recurring exhaust flexi-pipe leaks and suspension bush wear noted in the 2024, 2025, and 2026 MOT tests indicate that these parts are likely nearing the end of their service life. Check the service history specifically for evidence of timing belt changes, as the 1.6 BlueHDi engine requires strict adherence to replacement intervals which are critical at this high mileage.
Negotiate the price heavily to account for the immediate need to replace the worn front brake discs and the tyre nearing the legal limit. Given the vehicle's history of CV boot failures, listen carefully for clicking noises when turning at full lock during your test drive, as this could indicate damage to the constant velocity joints themselves.
As a diesel-powered commercial vehicle of this age, your fuel economy will be dependent on the load carried, though the 1.6L engine is generally efficient on motorways. You should factor in higher-than-average maintenance costs due to the vehicle's high mileage and the likelihood of needing frequent replacement of wear-and-tear items like brakes, tyres, and suspension components.
Insurance costs for a high-mileage commercial vehicle can be significant, so obtain quotes before committing. Annual running costs, including fuel, VED, insurance, and a contingency fund for repairs, are estimated to be between £1,800 and £2,200, assuming no major mechanical failures occur.
Focus your inspection on the front suspension and drivetrain. The MOT records show consistent issues with CV boots and suspension bushes; verify if these have been replaced with quality parts or if the current components are simply showing signs of age. The exhaust flexi-pipe has been a recurring failure point, so check for excessive vibration or blowing noises from underneath the engine bay.
Inspect the tyres for uneven wear, as the MOT history has flagged issues with the nearside rear tyre on multiple occasions. Finally, check all electrical functions, specifically the stop lamps and registration plate lights, which have frequently failed during MOT inspections, suggesting potential issues with wiring or bulb contacts.
This 2018 Peugeot Partner has covered 193,460 miles, which is significantly higher than the average for its age. The MOT history reveals a pattern of repeated failures and advisories, particularly concerning drive shaft boots, exhaust leaks, and suspension bushes. While it has passed its most recent test, the ongoing presence of wear-related items suggests that significant expenditure may be required in the near future.
The Peugeot Partner is a widely used commercial vehicle, but high-mileage examples often suffer from exhaust, suspension, and CV joint wear, as evidenced by this vehicle's history.
