Every Peugeot Bipper model year

Pass rates fall as cars age, so the only fair comparison for a 2016 car is other cars of the same age. The full run for the Peugeot Bipper:

What this means if you are buying a 2016 Bipper

The 2016 is one of the stronger years for this model, passing 5.1 points more often than the Peugeot Bipper average. That is a point in its favour, though condition and service history still matter more than the model year.

What a 10-year-old car fails on

A 2016 car is 10 years old now, and age drives the failure mix more than the badge does. Across all cars tested, these are the categories that actually cause failures:

  • Lights and electrical: 10.36% of all cars tested
  • Suspension: 8.65% of all cars tested
  • Tyres: 6.23% of all cars tested
  • Brakes: 6.1% of all cars tested
  • Visibility: wipers, washers, glass: 4.65% of all cars tested
  • Body, chassis and structure: 3.18% of all cars tested

That is above average and into the range where cambelts and water pumps are due if they have not already been done, so ask for the service history rather than take the mileage on trust. On a 2016 Peugeot Bipper the average at test was 102,012 miles, so treat anything far above that as a car that has worked harder than its peers, and anything far below as one worth checking for the faults that come from standing still.

The strongest year for this model is 2017 at 70.3%, and the weakest in our data is 2008 at 61.1%. That 9.2 point spread across the model's life is why comparing a 2016 car against a newer one tells you very little.
