2017 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Petrol · BJ51 BDJ

The 2017 Peugeot 3008 stands as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trajectory, confirmed by the latest DVSA examination on 13 February 2026 at 79,539 miles which passed with zero defects recorded. Prior tests show the same clean outcome. The May 2022 test at 53,156 miles, April 2023 at 62,248 miles, April 2024 at 70,758 miles and February 2025 at 76,047 miles all returned passes without advisories. This uninterrupted sequence signals consistent upkeep rather than deferred repairs. Mileage accumulation aligns with typical use for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,800 miles per year. The record reveals a gentle tapering of annual distance. From May 2022 to April 2023 the car covered 9,092 miles; the following year to April 2024 added 8,510 miles. The interval to February 2025 captured 5,289 miles in under eleven months, then only 3,492 miles to the February 2026 test. No testing gaps exceed thirteen months. Such low recent mileage suggests lighter commuting or prolonged standing periods, yet the owner maintained annual statutory checks without fail. Across five examinations the tester flagged no worn suspension bushes, fractured coil springs, binding calipers, corroded brake discs or structural integrity concerns. Exhaust emissions met limits each time. The absence of advisories on consumables such as tyres and wiper blades implies previous owners addressed minor wear proactively. A clean MOT history of this length reflects diligent care, not neglected consumable replacement. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of chassis weld points and underbody for hidden corrosion, given Peugeot models of this era can suffer unseen rust. Examine front suspension arms and rear trailing bush conditions firsthand, as MOT snapshots may miss early degradation between tests. Verify service records complement the mileage taper. The mechanical evidence supports a sound purchase, provided a pre-sale check confirms no latent faults.
