The most common problems on the Peugeot Motor Caravan are suspension component mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded (44 recorded failures), position lamp(s) not working (39), and brake binding (36). These are the faults most likely to cause an MOT failure on this model, so check for them carefully on any test drive or pre-purchase inspection. Many are wear-and-tear items that can be budgeted for, but a car that's already failing on multiple fronts may signal neglected maintenance.
A typical Peugeot Motor Caravan owner drives around 1,891 miles per year. If the car you're looking at is significantly above this, expect more wear on suspension, brakes and tyres. If it's well below, the vehicle may have been sitting unused — check for perished rubber, corroded discs and stale fluids.

If you're buying one that's already approaching that window, the data suggests it has plenty of life left provided it's been maintained.
