2020 Peugeot Rifter 1.5L Diesel · SF20 HFA

This 2020 Peugeot Rifter presents a stable and largely positive maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass at its most recent MOT on 29 July 2025 at 9,208 miles. The tester flagged minor tyre advisories on that date, specifically a cut on both front tyres and perishing on the nearside rear, but these were not severe enough to cause a failure. The record shows a clear pattern of rectification between tests, most notably in July 2024 when a failed test for a missing rear seat belt anchorage bolt and defective wiper blades was followed the very next day by a pass with zero defects. This indicates a responsive owner who addressed safety-critical faults promptly rather than ignoring them. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a six-year-old vehicle. Covering just 9,208 miles over roughly six years equates to approximately 1,535 miles per year, well below the UK average. The progression is steady and unremarkable: 5,067 miles in July 2023, 6,603 miles in July 2024, and 9,208 miles in July 2025, representing an annual gain of around 1,500 to 2,600 miles with no sudden spikes or suspicious gaps. Such low mileage typically reduces wear on consumables and drivetrain components, though prolonged periods of inactivity can accelerate rubber deterioration and corrosion in ways that pure mileage figures do not capture. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the condition of all tyres, given that three of the four were flagged in the most recent test. The nearside rear tyre showed cracking or perishing, which on a low-mileage vehicle that may stand for extended periods is a telltale sign of age-related degradation rather than wear. Inspect the sidewalls carefully for further deterioration and confirm whether replacements have been fitted since July 2025. The missing seat belt anchorage bolt from the 2024 failure was rectified, but a physical check of all seat belt lower mountings is prudent to confirm the fix remains secure. With such low recorded mileage, verify that the vehicle has not been standing unused for long periods, as this can lead to sticking brake calipers, flat-spotted tyres, and moisture ingress into the exhaust or fuel system. A short test drive will reveal any binding brakes or suspension issues that a low-mileage but infrequently used van may develop.
