2021 Peugeot Horizon

CarHunch analysed 342 real MOT records for the 2021 Peugeot Horizon. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2021 Peugeot Horizon passes its MOT first time in 88.2% of cases, well above the UK average of 80%, suggesting this model is reliably built and maintained. Only 6.1% have ever recorded a dangerous defect, which is reassuringly low and no cause for concern.

At 13,264 miles median for a three-year-old car, these vehicles are running light, and the average of just 0.39 failures per test indicates owners aren't facing major mechanical bills. Before buying, check the service history carefully, because low mileage can mask deferred maintenance—and while advisories average 1.9 per test, that's typical wear rather than serious trouble.

What to check before buying a 2021 Peugeot Horizon

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.
