2017 Peugeot Boxer 2.0L Diesel · WA17 CVC

The Peugeot Boxer presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 July 2025 at 41,033 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run that began after a minor administrative failure in late 2023. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the five-year record, indicating consistent test compliance rather than deferred repairs. Recorded mileage stays low for a nine-year-old 2017 van. It rose from 30,943 miles at the December 2022 test to 34,432 miles at the November 2023 failure, then 34,433 miles two days later, 36,126 miles by July 2024, and 41,033 miles by July 2025. That equates to roughly 4,500 miles per year. The two-day gap between the 20 November 2023 failure and 22 November pass at near-identical mileage suggests a paperwork or identification error rather than a mechanical defect, as the failure listed no defects. The sparse, clean history gives the buyer little to chase on paper. Low annual use and a long static period between December 2022 and November 2023 can let brake calipers seize, tyres crack, and underbody corrosion start unseen. A pre-purchase inspection should still confirm suspension bushes, coil springs, brake disc condition, and structural integrity beneath the chassis. Given the absence of recorded advisories, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic test standards. The buyer should nonetheless verify service history and check for rust on sills and suspension mounts, as MOT cleans do not capture every worn consumable or early structural issue.
