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 26 MOT tests on record with a 77% pass rate and 17,388 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of suspension issues and low annual usage warrants significant caution.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging only 4,838 miles per year, with a significant drop from 98,000 miles in July 2019 to 101,822 miles in July 2020, and further drops to 1,000s of miles in subsequent years.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension failures and advisories across multiple MOT tests (e.g., Oct 2022, Oct 2024, Nov 2025).
- Extremely low annual mileage (4,838 miles/yr) for a 23-year-old vehicle, suggesting long periods of inactivity.
- Four MOT failures with no defect details provided, indicating unresolved or unaddressed safety-critical issues.
- Consistent advisories for suspension components and tyres across multiple tests, indicating chronic wear.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No recent major failures or advisories, suggesting the owner has been addressing issues as they arise.
- Low insurance group (3 out of 50) means lower running costs and insurance premiums.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 4/5 stars (2018) indicates a generally safe vehicle for its era.
