2013 Peugeot Boxer 2.2L Diesel · WK13 WKC

The most recent MOT on 2025-12-12 recorded 126,037 miles, marking a pass but with multiple defects. Key issues included a nearside rear registration plate lamp failure, tyres worn close to legal limits, an oil leak from the engine, and damaged shock absorbers with corrosion or oil misting. The nearside rear load door was also inoperable, and the side loading door showed structural damage. These findings indicate ongoing mechanical and safety concerns. A prior MOT on 2025-12-11, just one day earlier, resulted in a fail with similar defects, including broken side repeater lamps, seat belt anchorage issues, and shock absorber damage. This suggests unresolved problems between the two tests, raising questions about the vehicle’s maintenance history. The recurring issues with lighting components (e.g., side repeaters, registration plate lamps) and suspension parts (e.g., shock absorbers, drive shaft boots) point to a pattern of gradual deterioration rather than sudden failure. The trend shows consistent defects over multiple MOTs, with no clear improvement. Issues like oil leaks, tyre wear, and damaged shock absorbers reappeared across 2023–2025, indicating persistent mechanical strain. While some repairs may have been made between the 2025-12-11 fail and 2025-12-12 pass, the overlap in defects implies incomplete or temporary fixes.
