Peugeot 505 GTI Auto (1986)

266 real MOT outcomes analysed

1986 Peugeot 505 GTI Auto

CarHunch is tracking 266 1986 Peugeot 505 GTI Auto vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

This 1986 Peugeot 505 GTI Auto has a 0% first-time pass rate against the UK average of 80%—a catastrophic result that means every single vehicle in this cohort of 266 cars failed its MOT. No dangerous defects were recorded and there were zero average failures logged per vehicle, which suggests the data itself may be incomplete or corrupted rather than reflecting genuine roadworthiness.

At nearly four decades old, any 1986 model still on the road is exceptionally rare, and this dataset appears unreliable for making a buying decision. If you're genuinely considering one of these cars, treat it as a classic restoration project rather than a daily driver, and have a pre-purchase inspection from a specialist who knows Peugeot 505s—the MOT numbers here tell you almost nothing useful.

We have 266 1986 Peugeot 505 GTI Auto vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.

What to check before buying a 1986 Peugeot 505 GTI Auto

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.
