2017 Peugeot Boxer 2.0L Diesel · YJ17 FRL

The September 2025 MOT at 145,242 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the vehicle is presently roadworthy, yet the repeated notes of front and rear brake discs being worn, pitted or scored in 2023 and 2024 show that mechanical wear remains an ongoing concern rather than a resolved issue. Mileage has risen sharply relative to the vehicle’s nine‑year age, averaging about 16,138 miles per year; the jump from 119,161 miles in August 2024 to 145,242 miles in September 2025 represents a 26,081‑mile increase in roughly one year, and earlier periods such as 2018‑2020 show similarly rapid accumulation, while gaps between 2022 and 2023 (only 2,194 miles) suggest periods of low usage. A buyer should therefore inspect the brake system closely, checking disc thickness, pad condition and caliper binding, and examine suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or play, as these components have shown recurring stress. Visual checks for structural rust on the chassis, verification of tyre tread and condition, and confirmation that the engine malfunction indicator lamp is truly inoperative are also advisable, along with a review of service records to gauge how the high mileage has been managed.
