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 59% pass rate and 24,088 miles. The extremely low annual mileage (4,428 miles/yr) for a 25-year-old vehicle raises significant wear and tear concerns.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,428 miles per year, with a notable 1,107-mile increase between April 2014 and April 2015, suggesting a potential SORN or extended off-road period.

Things to check

  • Recurring major brake system failures (Apr 2015, Nov 2013) and advisories (Dec 2011, Nov 2012) indicate a persistent and serious safety concern.
  • Major failure for Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below 1.6mm (Nov 2009) and Nearside Outer Front CV joint (Nov 2006) highlight critical wear items.
  • The vehicle has been UNTAXED since 2001, which is highly unusual and may indicate a long period of non-use or SORN.
  • The MOT expired in 2017, and the vehicle has not been re-tested since, implying it has been off-road for over 6 years.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle has a valid MOT certificate as of the last test in April 2016, indicating it was roadworthy at that time.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering is present in the MOT history, which is a positive for integrity.
  • The car has consistently passed retests after failures, showing that issues were addressed and the vehicle was made roadworthy again.
  • The vehicle has a 4-star Euro NCAP safety rating, suggesting a reasonable level of safety features for its age.
