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 23 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 21,937 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a 'Not valid' MOT status, makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low usage, averaging only 3,176 miles per year, with a significant 4-year gap (2015-2019) where no MOT tests were recorded.

Things to check

  • MOT expired 2022-09-19; current status 'Not valid' — no active MOT.
  • Recurring major failures: brakes (4 failures), lights (5 failures), suspension (2 failures), and emissions (2 failures).
  • Extremely low annual mileage (3,176 mi/yr) for a 24-year-old vehicle, suggesting long periods of inactivity.
  • Multiple recurring advisories for ball joint, wheel bearing, and indicator issues, indicating chronic neglect.

Working in its favour

  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting the car has been left in a static condition.
  • The vehicle is a 2002 model, which is a classic and often sought after for its simplicity.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 4/5 stars (2018) indicates a reasonable level of safety for its era.
  • Low insurance group (3 out of 50) means lower running costs and insurance premiums.
