2017 Peugeot Partner Profession L1 Blue HDI
CarHunch analysed 623 real MOT records for the 2017 Peugeot Partner Profession L1 Blue HDI. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2017 Partner is a below-average performer at the MOT, with a 64.4% first-time pass rate that trails the UK average of 80% by a significant margin—meaning roughly one in three fail their test. The good news is that dangerous defects are rare (0%), so safety concerns aren't the primary issue here.
At 90,500 miles median, these vans have typical mileage for their age, yet they're still generating an average of 0.28 failures per vehicle, suggesting recurring maintenance problems rather than age-related wear catching up all at once. Before buying, get a pre-purchase inspection focusing on the specific failure patterns (fluid leaks, brake wear, and emissions systems are common on this generation), and budget for remedial work—this van needs closer attention than most.
What to check before buying a 2017 Peugeot Partner Profession L1 Blue HDI
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.
