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 8 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 68,187 miles. The recent advisory on tyres and the vehicle's age mean immediate maintenance will be required.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,945 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, though annual usage has fluctuated significantly, including a 1,717-mile period in 2007.

Things to check

  • Major emissions failure (CO, blue smoke) on 2008-12-11, a serious environmental concern.
  • Major brake failure (nearside front disc excessively scored) on 2008-12-11.
  • The vehicle is 25 years old, significantly increasing the likelihood of accumulated wear and tear.
  • The MOT expired in 2012, and the vehicle has been on SORN since, indicating a long period of non-use.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2018): 4-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
  • Only one minor test failure (brake disc) in 2008, immediately rectified.
