2018 Peugeot Boxer 2.0L Diesel · SV68 AXY

The Peugeot Boxer’s most recent MOT, conducted on 3 October 2025 at 13,959 miles , passed with no advisories or defects—a clean result that aligns with the three preceding tests since 2022. The absence of recurring issues suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained in critical areas, with no signs of structural corrosion, brake binding, or suspension wear flagged over the past three years. The only anomaly is the duplicate 1 November 2023 entry, where the car was tested twice on the same mileage—once failing (though no defects were recorded) and once passing—raising minor procedural questions but no mechanical concerns. Overall, the trend is stable, with no evidence of deteriorating components or deferred repairs. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging just 1,745 miles per year , which may indicate infrequent use or extended periods of inactivity. Between 2022 (7,091 miles) and 2025 (13,959 miles) , the car covered 6,868 miles in three years , a pace that would typically reduce wear on consumables like tyres, brakes, and suspension. The gap between the 2023 (10,679 miles) and 2024 (12,164 miles) tests shows only 1,485 miles accumulated in over a year , reinforcing the impression of light usage. Such low mileage could mean the vehicle has been stored or used sparingly, potentially preserving components beyond typical expectations—but it also means some wear items (e.g., brake pads, wiper blades) may have been neglected if not actively serviced. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should still verify a few key areas in person. While the records show no brake binding or disc corrosion, the rear brakes should be checked for uneven wear, as low-mileage vehicles sometimes develop stiffness from disuse. The suspension bushes and coil springs —critical for ride quality and handling—have never been flagged, but their condition should be assessed for dryness or cracking, especially if the car has been left unused for long periods. The exhaust system and underbody should be inspected for surface rust, as low-mileage vehicles can still suffer from moisture-related corrosion if not garaged properly. Finally, the tyres —though not mentioned in the MOT—should be closely examined for age-related degradation, as tread depth alone may not reflect their overall integrity after years of minimal use.
