About the Peugeot Bipper

The Peugeot Bipper was MOT tested 37,340 times in 2024 (DVSA data, retests included) across 11 model years (2008 to 2018), with an average pass rate of 73%.

Best and Worst Years

Of the years with at least 100 tests, the 2017 model has the highest pass rate at 78% from 2,443 tests. The 2008 model has the lowest at 70%. The 8 point gap means pass rates vary somewhat between years, but no year is dramatically different. Newer cars usually pass more often simply because they are younger.

Reliability Trend

Newer Peugeot Bippers pass their MOT more often than older ones, by 4 percentage points on average, which is mostly down to age and wear.

Mileage Across Years

The oldest model in our data (2008) averages 141,505 miles, while the newest (2018) averages 45,970 miles. Older models have covered serious mileage, so suspension and drivetrain wear are worth checking.

Compared to the Peugeot brand average of 83%, the Bipper is 10 points lower, placing it among the less reliable Peugeot models.
