2015 Peugeot E7 2.0L Diesel · SF15 EOU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend of mechanical neglect and deferred repairs. While it passed its latest test in March 2026 at 193,656 miles, this followed a failure just one month prior where multiple critical components were flagged. The persistence of certain advisories, such as the nearside rear brake pipe and offside front suspension ball joint, across several years suggests the owner only performs the minimum work required to pass the test rather than conducting preventative maintenance. At 193,656 miles over 11 years, this Peugeot has covered a high mileage, averaging approximately 17,600 miles per year. The data shows rapid accumulation in recent periods; specifically, between March 2025 and March 2026, the car covered nearly 9,000 miles in just twelve months. This high usage rate puts significant strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, which is evidenced by the simultaneous failure of three drive shaft CV boots and various suspension joints during the February 2026 test. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension geometry, as the record shows recurring issues with ball joints, track rod ends, and coil springs. The corrosion on the offside front coil spring noted in 2026 is a structural-related risk that could lead to sudden component failure. Furthermore, the 2025 failure regarding visible smoke from the diesel particulate filter suggests potential deep-seated engine or exhaust issues that may be expensive to rectify at this high mileage. The persistent damaged nearside rear brake pipe should also be inspected for signs of deep corrosion or thinning, as it has not been properly replaced despite multiple warnings.
