Looking at a Boxer?

Population figures cannot tell you whether one particular car is taxed, MOT-valid or safe to buy.

Check its registration free for the official tax, MOT and mileage record. If the car is still worth pursuing, the optional £9.99 full history check adds outstanding-finance, stolen and insurance write-off checks.

Wondering whether one particular Boxer is off the road? A free SORN check shows whether it is currently SORN, taxed or untaxed.

Is the Boxer disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 124,625 in 2025 Q3 and stand at 119,793 in 2026 Q1, down 4%. That is up 12% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 20,474 are declared SORN — 1 in 7 of the 140,267 still on the DVLA record is off the road, laid up, part-restored or waiting to be sold.

A falling population is worth knowing before you buy: it usually means fewer donor cars, fewer specialists and slower parts supply, and it is why a good example of a scarce model can hold its price while a neglected one is hard to sell at any price.

Boxer MOT pass rate

In 2024, 72.3% of 46,602 Peugeot Boxer MOTs passed first time — above the 71.2% UK average. Pass rate moves with age: 83% of cars aged 3–5 years passed first time, against 64.4% aged 15–30 years.

  • Brake Performance — 6.4% of tests. The brakes underperformed on the rolling road. Expect brake work rather than an adjustment.
  • Headlamp Aim — 3.6% of tests. Headlights pointing too high or low. Cheap to adjust, and common on every make.
  • Wipers — 3.3% of tests. Worn wiper blades. Minutes to fix, and a fair hint that servicing was skipped.
  • Component Mounting Prescribed Areas — 2.7% of tests. Corrosion near a mounting point for a tested component. This is the kind of rust that gets expensive — inspect it.
