AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Peugeot has 16 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 15,877 miles. The extremely low mileage (4,231 miles/year) and a 2023 service gap raise significant concerns.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,231 miles per year, with a concerning 2023 MOT gap and suspiciously low recent mileage readings.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Tyres worn close to legal limit (Aug 2020) — a clear safety hazard.
- Recurring failures: Tyres (4 tests), CV boots (4 tests), exhaust (3 tests), anti-roll bar (2 tests).
- Major emissions failure: 3 major failures (Jul 2022, Jan 2024, Dec 2025) with no subsequent clean pass.
- 2023 MOT gap: Vehicle was off-road or unrecorded for a full year, raising serious questions.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-21, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No mileage anomalies or fraud detected in the provided MOT history.
- No recurring failures on safety-critical systems like brakes or steering.
- Consistent retest pattern shows owner addressed issues promptly.
