Peugeot MOT pass rates by model
Every completed first-attempt MOT on a class-4 Peugeot in Great Britain in 2025 — 1,395,100 tests, covering Peugeot's cars and its car-derived vans and pickups. How they age, and how each model compares, computed by SortedCars from the official DVSA record of every test.
How many Peugeot cars are still on the road?
At the end of 2025, DVLA's register held 1,475,625 Peugeot cars that were taxed or on SORN: 1,282,374 taxed and 193,251 on SORN (Statutory Off Road Notification — kept, but declared off the road by the keeper), so 86.9% of them were taxed. DVLA lists 75 named Peugeot car models, counted across the whole United Kingdom. A further 4,154 taxed Peugeot cars are on the register with no model name recorded; they are in the totals here and under no model below. These are counts of cars, not tests, and cars only: vans, pickups and motorhomes are recorded as goods vehicles or motor caravans in the licensing data and are not in these figures, whereas the MOT figures above include Peugeot's car-derived vans and pickups. The model table below carries the count for each model DVLA records under a name of its own.

Better or worse than the average car?
Peugeot's pass rate minus the all-cars pass rate at each age, in percentage points. Bars above zero: Peugeot beats the average car of that age. Below zero: it trails.

What mileage is normal for a Peugeot?
Mileage recorded at test by vehicle age, all Peugeot class-4 vehicles, 2025. The line is the typical (median) Peugeot; the shaded band holds the middle half. A car far outside the band, in either direction, is worth questions the recorded history can answer.
Mileage values are midpoints of 2,500-mile bands.

Every Peugeot model in the data
First-time pass rate per model, 2025. Every model with at least 2,000 tests is listed — all 24 of them, ordered by number of tests; car and van models with 5,000+ tests link to their own page — conversions (marked in the table) keep their row but have no page of their own. All trims and variants are grouped under one model name; models marked (van) or (car and van) are tested in the same class-4 MOT. Pass rates are unadjusted for age: models with older fleets sit lower. The last three columns are the number of that model on DVLA's register at the end of 2025 — taxed, on SORN, and the taxed share — from the licensing statistics rather than the MOT record. They are left blank for vans, pickups and car-and-van models, which the licensing data counts as goods vehicles rather than cars, and for models DVLA does not record under a name of their own. DVLA's model groupings do not always draw the line where the MOT grouping does; each model page says what its count covers.

Peugeot models ranked by pass rate
All 14 grouped Peugeot car models with 5,000 or more first tests in 2025, highest first-time pass rate first — the full field at that floor. Only models sold purely as cars are ranked; van and pickup models, models sold as both car and van and conversions appear in the table above but are not ranked among cars. Pass rates are unadjusted for fleet age — a model whose fleet runs older sits lower for that reason alone. Neighbouring rows can be effectively level, and models sharing a published rate share a rank.
