2022 Peugeot Boxer 440 S L4H2 Bluehdi 2.2L Diesel · WA22 AUR

The most recent MOT test on 2026-07-26 shows this Peugeot Boxer has not yet undergone its annual inspection, with the last recorded test date being September 2025 —just 10 months ago . While the vehicle passed both its 2025 and 2024 tests without defects, the pattern of two consecutive failures —each followed by a rapid pass—suggests either a brief, unresolved issue or a tester’s inconsistency rather than a worsening mechanical trend. No advisories or recurring faults were logged, meaning no structural or safety-critical components were flagged during those tests. However, the lack of a recent MOT (due in September 2026 ) raises immediate concern: if the vehicle has not been tested in over a year, there is no guarantee it remains compliant with current emissions or safety standards. The mileage progression indicates aggressive usage , with 18,295 miles accumulated in just under a year between the 2023 and 2024 tests (from 17,296 to 33,307 miles). This rate— over 15,000 miles annually —is unusually high for a commercial van of this age, placing significant stress on suspension bushes, coil springs, and drivetrain components. The consistent 25-mile gap between failures (2024 and 2025) suggests the vehicle was likely driven shortly after each test, which could accelerate wear on high-friction parts like brake pads, calipers, and transmission fluid. There are no gaps in the record indicating prolonged inactivity, so no opportunity for deferred maintenance has occurred. Given the lack of recorded defects, the most critical areas for an in-person inspection should focus on high-mileage wear items . The suspension —particularly rear bushes and coil springs—should be checked for excessive play or corrosion, as these are prone to failure under heavy loads. The brake system warrants scrutiny: while no binding calipers were logged, the high mileage increases the risk of uneven pad wear or warped discs, especially if the van was used for towing or heavy loads. Exhaust emissions should also be verified, as the BlueHDi diesel may have accumulated soot or catalytic converter issues over time. Finally, structural corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and underbody panels should be inspected, as prolonged exposure to road salt or moisture can compromise integrity. The absence of advisories does not preclude these issues, so a thorough mechanical assessment is essential.
