2012 Peugeot Expert 2.0L Diesel · WF12 YCS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT in June 2025 with 95,339 miles and no recorded defects. This indicates an improvement in maintenance standards compared to the 2023 test, where mechanical and wear issues were identified. The lack of defects in the latest inspection suggests that the current owner has addressed previous concerns and is maintaining the vehicle to a passing standard. The mileage history shows a significant anomaly in usage between April 2022 and July 2024. During this period, the vehicle covered 68,500 miles, jumping from 71,821 to 140,321 miles, a rate that far exceeds the calculated annual average for this van. However, the drop to 95,339 miles in the June 2025 test suggests either a clerical error in the previous recording or a period of extremely low use following that heavy mileage phase. This high-intensity period likely placed considerable stress on the drivetrain and suspension components despite the lower overall mileage relative to its age. A physical inspection should focus specifically on the rear suspension assembly, as the 2023 record flagged a corroded nearside rear coil spring. While the vehicle passed since, corrosion on springs is often progressive and should be checked for structural integrity to prevent sudden failure. The buyer should also verify the tyre alignment and wear patterns, as the 2023 advisory regarding uneven wear on the nearside rear tyre indicates potential tracking issues or worn bushes. Given the massive spike in mileage between 2022 and 2024, checking the condition of the brake discs and fluid levels is essential to ensure the heavy use did not result in accelerated mechanical wear.
