2022 Peugeot Rifter GT EV Electric · WH71 AVG

The most recent MOT test on 2026-03-25 confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy with no defects recorded at 10,020 miles. The absence of advisories or failings across both tests—including the current one just four months ago—indicates a stable maintenance history with no recurring issues. While this does not preclude hidden wear, the lack of mechanical or structural warnings suggests the vehicle has been kept in a basic but consistent condition. The tester’s clean bill of health at the latest inspection aligns with the low mileage, reinforcing that no urgent repairs have been deferred. The recorded mileage of 10,020 miles over four years—averaging just 2,505 miles annually—is unusually low for a vehicle of this age. The gap between tests, spanning 14 months from the January 2025 pass to the March 2026 pass, suggests either infrequent use or a deliberate deferral of the MOT. Such low mileage could imply the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary, potentially accelerating wear on components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and battery health. The lack of mileage progression between tests also raises questions about whether the vehicle has been driven regularly enough to prevent fluid degradation or minor mechanical drift. Given the clean MOT history, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should centre on consumables and high-wear areas. Tyres, despite no recorded faults, should be checked for uneven wear or signs of prolonged underinflation, given the low mileage. The brakes—never flagged—should be examined for binding calipers, glazed discs, or excessive pad wear, as brake dust accumulation can mask underlying issues over low-mileage periods. Suspension components, particularly bushes and shock absorbers, warrant scrutiny for perished rubber or leaks, as these are less likely to fail under light use but can degrade over time. Finally, the battery and electrical connections should be tested, as extended periods of inactivity can lead to corrosion or reduced capacity. Structural integrity, including underbody corrosion and wheel bearing condition, remains critical regardless of mileage.
