2017 Peugeot Horizon 1.6L Diesel · SF67 AWW

This 2017 Peugeot Horizon has demonstrated a consistent roadworthiness record across all five MOT tests, with no defects or advisories recorded in the most recent cycle—including the June 2025 test at 19,030 miles. The absence of recurring issues suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though the lack of advisories does not preclude hidden wear. The most recent test was conducted just over a year ago, which is within the acceptable window for a vehicle of this age, though it now requires another MOT within the next 12 months. The stability of the record implies no obvious pattern of neglect or deferred repairs, but the low mileage raises questions about other forms of wear not captured in the MOT. The recorded mileage of 19,030 miles over nine years—approximately 2,114 miles annually—is unusually low for a vehicle of this age, suggesting prolonged periods of inactivity or very light use. The gaps between tests are consistent with standard MOT intervals, but the notable jump from 12,029 miles in September 2020 to 14,531 miles in October 2021 (2,502 miles in a year) followed by slower accumulation hints at variable usage rather than steady driving. Such low mileage can mask deeper issues, particularly in components prone to static corrosion or seal degradation, such as suspension mounts, wheel bearings, and fluid reservoirs. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension integrity, particularly the coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers, as these are not routinely tested but can degrade even with minimal use. The brakes, while not flagged, should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary. Corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and underbody should be examined, as low mileage does not guarantee absence of rust. Finally, fluid levels (brake, power steering, coolant) and condition (leaks, discolouration) should be verified, as these are not MOT-tested but critical to long-term reliability. The lack of advisories does not absolve the need for these checks.
