AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Peugeot has 15 MOT tests on record with a 87% pass rate and 21,241 miles. The recent MOT pass in April 2026 is positive, but the extensive history of advisories and failures warrants a thorough inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, showing normal usage of 7,926 miles/year, with a notable spike of 19,538 miles in the last 12 months (Apr 2026) after a period of low annual usage.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 6 tests (Mar 2017, Mar 2018, Mar 2020, Sep 2022, Apr 2026) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring suspension advisories (Mar 2017, Mar 2018, Sep 2022) and a major failure (Sep 2022) suggest ongoing structural issues.
- Recurring exhaust advisories (Mar 2017, Mar 2018, Apr 2026) and a major failure (Sep 2022) point to recurring emissions system problems.
- The Offside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (Sep 2022) is a significant safety-critical failure.
Working in its favour
- Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 7,926 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until April 2027, indicating it recently passed a safety inspection.
- No DANGEROUS defects are recorded in the MOT history, which is a positive sign for immediate safety.
- The car has a low insurance group (3 out of 50), making it a cheap and attractive option to insure.
