Peugeot Speedfight (2006)
2006 Peugeot Speedfight
CarHunch analysed 1,594 real MOT records for the 2006 Peugeot Speedfight. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2006 Peugeot Speedfight has a first-time MOT pass rate of 61.8%, significantly below the UK average of 80%, which suggests these 18-year-old scooters tend to arrive at test with unresolved issues. With 17.2% of vehicles in this cohort having recorded dangerous defects, buyers need to factor in potential safety concerns alongside the reliability shortfall.
These Speedfights are running relatively low mileage for their age—a median of 14,261 miles—yet still averaging 1.45 failures per test, pointing to age-related wear rather than hard use. Before committing to one, have a trusted mechanic inspect the brakes, lights, and chassis condition, as the 3.5 advisories per vehicle indicate accumulated maintenance demands that MOT testers routinely flag.
What to check before buying a 2006 Peugeot Speedfight
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.
