Peugeot Boxer (2021)
2021 Peugeot Boxer
CarHunch analysed 4,519 real MOT records for the 2021 Peugeot Boxer. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2021 Peugeot Boxer passes its MOT at 82.5%, slightly above the UK average of 80%, suggesting broadly reliable mechanicals for a commercial van in this age group. However, 12% of vehicles have experienced a dangerous defect at some point, which is a modest but genuine concern for buyers prioritising safety.
At nearly 50,000 miles median, this cohort shows typical usage for a three-year-old commercial vehicle. The average vehicle racks up 0.6 failures and 1.9 advisories per test, indicating minor wear items are cropping up but nothing systemic—when you buy one, budget for routine maintenance on suspension and lighting but don't expect major engine work yet.
What to check before buying a 2021 Peugeot Boxer
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.
