2021 Peugeot Boxer 435 S L3H2 Bluehdi 2.2L Diesel · YJ71 EPP

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a clear shift toward deferred consumable repairs. The most recent test conducted in December 2025 at 59,930 miles flagged multiple brake-related defects, including thin nearside rear brake pads and broken brake wear indicators on both the passenger front and driver side wheels. These findings suggest that while the vehicle passes the test, the owner is only addressing components once they reach a failure threshold rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical commercial vehicle usage profile, averaging approximately 12,000 miles per year. There is a significant jump of 22,241 miles between the December 2023 and December 2024 tests, followed by another 19,144 miles in the subsequent year. The early history of the vehicle, showing only 6,782 miles by late 2022, indicates low initial use, but the recent transition to heavy-duty annual is evident. This explains the sudden appearance of perishing tyres and oil leaks noted in later records. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system to ensure all worn indicators have been replaced and that calipers are not seizing. The oil leak identified in December 2024 requires a close look at the engine and gearbox seals to determine if it is a minor seep or a failing gasket. Additionally, the report of cracked or perished tyres in 2024 implies the vehicle may have sat for extended periods, which can lead to rubber degradation in the suspension components regardless of the remaining tread depth.
