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

This 2003 Peugeot has 27 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 56,326 miles. While many issues were resolved, the sheer number of failures and advisories for a 23-year-old vehicle warrants a thorough inspection.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,203 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausibly low annual usage, showing normal usage patterns.

Things to check

  • Recurring major failures in bodywork (Apr 2022, Apr 2023) and steering (Apr 2021, Apr 2023) indicate structural neglect.
  • Multiple advisories for tyres (Apr 2020, Apr 2025) and brakes (Apr 2023) suggest chronic wear and maintenance.
  • Consistent pattern of anti-roll bar linkage wear (Apr 2020, Apr 2021) and track rod end play (Apr 2023) points to suspension system weakness.
  • The 2003 diesel engine is not ULEZ-compliant, incurring daily charges in London.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2018): 4-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until May 2027 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage averaging 8,203 miles/year aligns well with typical UK usage.
