2016 Peugeot Horizon 1.6L Petrol · SF66 EXV

This Peugeot Horizon has demonstrated consistent roadworthiness over the past two years, with no defects recorded in any of the five MOT tests since February 2024. The most recent test, conducted just six months ago on 26 January 2026, confirmed full compliance without failings. There is no evidence of recurring issues or advisories, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level without major mechanical neglect. However, the January 2026 failure—despite no recorded defects—raises minor concern, as it indicates a potential administrative oversight or a brief period of non-compliance that was swiftly rectified. The recorded mileage of 47,132 miles over ten years reflects unusually light usage, averaging just 4,713 miles annually. This pattern is atypical for a vehicle of this age, implying prolonged periods of inactivity or storage. The most notable gap occurs between the June 2023 and February 2024 tests, where mileage increased by only 2,249 miles in eight months—a slow accumulation that could suggest limited driving. The absence of any advisories or defects despite this low mileage suggests no accelerated wear, but it also implies deferred maintenance that may have gone unchecked over extended periods. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components, particularly the rear bushes and coil springs, as these are common points of wear even at low mileages. The brakes, while not flagged, warrant verification for uneven pad wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been stationary for prolonged periods. Structural integrity should be assessed for corrosion, particularly around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as rust can develop silently even with minimal use. Finally, the exhaust system should be checked for leaks or damage, as emissions-related failures are often the first to appear in vehicles with irregular driving patterns.
