AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2002 Peugeot has 22 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 17,269 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2021-03-29, which is a major red flag.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 4,558 miles/yr, averaging only 81,675 miles over 24 years, which is highly unusual for a 2002 car.

Things to check

  • MOT HISTORY GAP: No MOT tests recorded from 2007-12-01 to 2019-03-01, a 12-year period.
  • MOT EXPIRY DATE: The current MOT status is 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2021-03-29, indicating it is not roadworthy.
  • MILEAGE ANOMALY: Recorded mileage of 17,269 miles in 2005 is implausibly low for a 2002 vehicle.
  • MILEAGE INTEGRITY: The 24-year history shows only 81,675 miles, a clear red flag for potential fraud.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2018): 4-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 7 historical failures
  • No specific green flags are present in the MOT history or mileage trajectory for this 24-year-old vehicle.
