This 2004 Peugeot has 21 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 5,452 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with a 22-year-old registration, making it an unroadworthy and uninsurable purchase.

The vehicle shows a 22-year gap in recorded mileage (Jan 2004 to Aug 2018), followed by extremely low usage (23,412 mi by Aug 2018), then a massive 58,918 mi jump before Jan 2022, and finally a 10,450 mi drop before Feb 2023.

Things to check
