1995 Peugeot 405 Glx

CarHunch is tracking 1,985 1995 Peugeot 405 Glx vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

This 1995 Peugeot 405 GLX is a serious reliability concern: only 10% pass their MOT first time, compared to the UK average of 80%, and the petrol versions fare even worse at 0% pass rate. No vehicles in this cohort have ever recorded a dangerous defect, which is the only bright spot in an otherwise poor safety record.

With nearly 79,000 miles on the clock on average, these cars are showing their age after nearly 30 years, yet somehow average zero failures and zero advisories per vehicle—a statistical anomaly that suggests either incomplete data recording or that vehicles failing badly have already been scrapped. If you're considering one, expect significant repair costs upfront and have a pre-purchase inspection by a specialist, because the MOT data alone won't tell you what's actually wrong with it.

What to check before buying a 1995 Peugeot 405 Glx

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
