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 18 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 20,541 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2017-07-18, which is a major red flag.

The mileage trajectory shows very low annual usage (4,292 miles/yr), but a significant anomaly on 17 Jun 2015 with a 6,231-mile difference between retest attempts.

Things to check

  • MOT status is 'Not valid' with expiry 2017-07-18 — no current MOT.
  • 6 major failures across brakes, steering, and suspension (Jun 2015, Jul 2014, Feb 2013).
  • 11 advisories for recurring issues like ball joints, suspension arms, and tyres.
  • Unusually large mileage difference (6,231 mi) on 17 Jun 2015 retest pair.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2018): 4-star safety rating.
  • No recurring failures on the same system in the last 2 years (Jun 2016 PASS).
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the recent history.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage suggests light use and potential longevity.
