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

This 2001 Peugeot has 17 MOT tests on record with a 53% pass rate and 21,487 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2015-05-08, which is a significant legal and safety concern.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 5,122 miles per year, averaging 21,487 miles over 25 years, which is well below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year.

Things to check

  • MOT expired 2015-05-08; current status 'Not valid' — illegal to drive on public roads.
  • 8 major failures across brakes, suspension, and emissions in 17 tests (Dec 2006, Nov 2008, Dec 2009, Dec 2010, Dec 2011, Dec 2012, May 2014).
  • 9 passed tests immediately followed 8 failed tests, indicating reactive, not proactive, maintenance.
  • Recurring major failures in critical safety systems (brakes, suspension, emissions) suggest systemic neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2018): 4-star safety rating.
  • No specific green flags are present in the MOT history for this 25-year-old vehicle.
