2014 Peugeot Independence 2.0L Diesel · SF14 DFL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistently stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 28 July 2025 at 56,861 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This clean sheet across the last five recorded tests indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation in recent years. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,738 miles per year. There is a visible gap in the records between February 2020 and July 2022, during which the car covered only 9,303 miles over over two years. Since that period, the usage has become more consistent, with roughly 5,000 miles driven between the 2022 and 2023 tests, and a similar interval in subsequent years. This low annual mileage suggests reduced wear on the drivetrain components and suspension assembly compared to higher-mile counterparts. While the MOT history shows no flagged faults, a buyer should still inspect for issues associated with low-mileage vehicles that sit stationary. Long periods of inactivity can cause rubber components, such as suspension bushes and sidewalls, to perish or crack despite low tread wear. You should check for corrosion on the brake discs and seized calipers, which often occur when a car is not used frequently. Given the age of the Peugeot, a physical inspection of the underbody for structural rust is necessary, though the official record shows no history of corrosion failures to date.
