2011 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · SF61 FVD

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT history leading up to the most recent test. The May 2025 inspection at 105,769 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. This follows a consistent pattern of successful tests dating back to at least September 2022, suggesting that the vehicle has been maintained sufficiently to meet minimum legal standards without recurring failures or significant component degradation. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical usage pattern for a 15-year-old commercial vehicle. Between March 2023 and May 2025, the vehicle covered approximately 18,014 miles, which aligns with the average annual mileage for this age bracket. A notable period of higher usage occurred between the March 2024 test at 89,722 miles and the May 2025 test at 105,769 miles, representing roughly 16,000 miles in 14 months. This steady progression indicates regular use rather than long periods of inactivity. While the MOT record is remarkably clean, the lack of advisories does not account for the natural wear expected on a vehicle of this age and mileage. A physical inspection should focus on common Peugeot Partner wear points, specifically checking for corrosion on the rear axle and subframe, which often goes undetected until it reaches a failure threshold. You should also examine the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these components often require replacement around the 100,000-mile mark. The absence of recorded issues with braking systems or emissions suggests the vehicle has been well-kept, but you should manually verify the thickness of the brake discs and the condition of the pads. Given the mileage, it is also prudent to inspect the timing belt and water pump if there is no documented service history to support their replacement. Checking the integrity of the underside for structural rust is essential to ensure no underlying degradation has been missed by the tester.
