2010 Peugeot Partner 1.6L Diesel · SJ10 ALU

The vehicle presents a concerning roadworthiness profile characterized by a reactive approach to maintenance rather than preventative care. While the most recent recorded pass occurred in January 2022 at 111,109 miles, this data is over four years old, leaving the current mechanical state of the vehicle unverified. The history shows a trend of recurring failures where critical components are only addressed after failing a test, as evidenced by the multiple safety-related failures between 2017 and 2020. The mileage pattern is relatively consistent with a low-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. However, there is a significant gap in records following the January 2022 test at 111,109 miles. Given that today is July 2026, the vehicle has not undergone a recorded MOT test for several years. The accumulation of roughly 12,000 miles between 2021 and 2022 suggests potential periods of inactivity, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and fluid systems despite the low overall mileage. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and steering, as the record flags repeated issues with the steering rack inner joints and nearside front ball joints. The braking system shows a history of neglected attention, with the tester noting thin pads, snapped rear brake cables, and pitted front discs in the 2020 period. The drivetrain also requires close scrutiny, specifically the offside front CV joint boot, which showed severe deterioration across multiple years, indicating a high risk of joint failure if not recently replaced. The history also highlights poor tyre management, with multiple failures for exposed cords and tread depths reaching the legal limit. Any prospective buyer should check the current condition of all four tyres and the structural integrity of the chassis, as previous tests noted an unsupported exhaust system. Because of the age of the vehicle and the long interval since the last recorded test, an inspection for deep corrosion, perished brake lines, and fractured rubber hoses is essential to ensure the vehicle remains safe for road use.
