2017 Peugeot Bipper 1.2L Diesel · WD17 FDV

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean MOT pass on May 27, 2026, 87,142 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement after a period of neglect in mid-2025. While the 2025 test revealed multiple mechanical and lighting defects, the lack of defects in the most recent inspection indicates that the current owner addressed the identified faults to bring the car back to a passing standard. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 6,774 miles recorded between February 2024 and June 2025, followed by a rapid accumulation of 7,457 miles in the final year leading up to the 2026 test. This suggests the vehicle is being used regularly for daily tasks rather than sitting for long periods, which generally helps prevent premature degradation of rubber components despite the age-related issues seen in the past. A physical inspection should focus specifically on the front suspension, given the May 2025 failure of the offside front lower suspension arm ball joint dust cover. Although this was rectified, repeated ingress of dirt can lead to accelerated wear on the ball joint itself. The prospective buyer should also verify the alignment of the front tyres, as the 2025 record flagged uneven wear on the edges, which typically points to incorrect geometry or worn suspension bushes. Finally, while the headlamp aim and registration plate lamp were cleared, a check of the electrical system remains advisable to ensure no further loose wiring or failing bulbs remain.
