That's 9 points below the average of 82% across all models in our data, so check the year-by-year data carefully before buying. Our records list diesel and petrol versions.
Best and Worst Years
Of the years with at least 100 tests, the 2019 model has the highest pass rate at 89% from 8,120 tests. The 2004 model has the lowest at 64%. With a 25 point gap, the year you choose makes a real difference. Newer cars usually pass more often simply because they are younger.
Reliability Trend
Newer Peugeot Experts pass their MOT more often than older ones, by 11 percentage points on average, which is mostly down to age and wear.
Mileage Across Years
The oldest model in our data (1997) averages 144,308 miles, while the newest (2021) averages 44,382 miles. Older models have covered serious mileage, so suspension and drivetrain wear are worth checking.
Compared to the Peugeot brand average of 83%, the Expert is 10 points lower, placing it among the less reliable Peugeot models.
Estimated Running Costs
Based on 7,400 miles/year, average pump prices of 174.57p petrol and 199.33p diesel (GOV.UK weekly road fuel prices, week of 19 October 2026), and MOT pass rate data. Insurance not included.
