AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Peugeot has 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 50,118 miles. The high mileage and multiple prior failures warrant a thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 14,249 miles per year, with a significant spike of 26,561 miles between Oct 2020 and Jul 2019, and a notable drop to 3,527 miles between Jul 2019 and May 2022.
Things to check
- Recurring steering failures: Offside Front Track rod end ball joint excessive play (May 2024 FAIL) and Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint worn (May 2024 FAIL).
- Recurring emissions failures: Exhaust Lambda reading outside limits (May 2024 FAIL) and Engine/Oil major failure (May 2024 FAIL).
- High annual mileage: 14,249 miles/year exceeds UK average, indicating accelerated wear on components.
- Multiple prior failures: 5 failures across 15 tests, including steering and emissions, suggests reactive maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-05-09, providing peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent mileage trajectory: No evidence of odometer fraud or suspiciously round numbers.
- No DANGEROUS defects remain unresolved: All dangerous defects were addressed and passed subsequent tests.
- Recent clean pass: The most recent MOT on 2026-04-30 passed without any failures or dangerous defects.
