Car statistics
How many Peugeot Travellers are still on the road in Great Britain, how many are declared off the road, how new registrations have changed and which fuels they use. Built from DVLA licensing records and 1,811 DVSA MOT tests.
There were 3,707 Peugeot Travellers licensed in Great Britain at the end of March 2026, and a further 63 declared off the road (SORN). That is the most on the road at any year end since 2016.
Numbers are still rising: the latest count is the highest in this series.

In 2025, 76.4% of Peugeot Traveller MOT tests were passed first time, against 72.8% for all cars. Cars of the same ages as the Peugeot Travellers tested pass 82.6% of the time, so the Peugeot Traveller does worse than average for its age, by 6.2 points. In 2024 its pass rate was 76.4%.
Comparing like with like: each bar pair covers cars of the same age, so an older average age does not count against a model.

Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment is the most common reason a Peugeot Traveller fails its MOT, appearing on 29.7% of failed tests. A failed test can have defects in more than one category, so shares add up to more than 100%. 6.8% of Peugeot Traveller tests found at least one dangerous defect, against 7.3% for all cars.

The single most common reason a Peugeot Traveller failed its MOT in 2025 was “Wipers: does not clear the windscreen effectively”, on 16.9% of 427 failed tests. 43.7% of tests ended with at least one advisory, a problem to watch that did not fail the test; the most common was “Tread depth: worn close to legal limit or worn on edge”. The same fault on any wheel or side counts once.

United Kingdom figures from DfT table VEH0220 (licensed cars at the end of each year, SORN excluded), so they differ slightly from the Great Britain counts elsewhere on this page. How we use engine sizes.
The Vehicle Certification Agency’s new car data lists the Peugeot Traveller from 2017 to 2023. On the WLTP test (listings 2019 to 2023), official combined fuel economy for its diesel versions ranges from 35.5 to 47.1 mpg, with CO2 of 157 to 209 g/km; electric versions have an official range of 122 to 148 miles. On the older NEDC test (listings 2017 to 2018), official combined fuel economy for its diesel versions ranges from 44.8 to 58.9 mpg, with CO2 of 126 to 166 g/km.

DVSA lists 51 safety recalls for the Peugeot Traveller since 1992, the first in 2017. The most recent was launched on 19 December 2025.
All 51 Peugeot Traveller recalls, with defects, remedies and build dates
A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Peugeot Traveller. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a dealer. How we match recalls to models.
