2021 PEUGEOT 3008 GT S/S PHEV AUTO1.6L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

This Peugeot 3008 demonstrates a consistently stable roadworthiness record, with all three most recent MOT tests—conducted in April 2024 (32,679 miles), April 2025 (38,910 miles), and March 2026 (45,598 miles)—resulting in clean passes without any defects or advisories. The absence of recurring issues across these intervals suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a baseline level, though the lack of advisories does not preclude hidden wear in high-stress components like suspension bushes or drivetrain joints. The most recent test, just four months ago, confirms the vehicle remains within legal limits for emissions, brakes, and structural integrity, though a thorough inspection would be necessary to verify the condition of components not routinely tested, such as coil springs or steering dampers. The mileage progression of approximately 9,120 miles per year aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, with no abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity that might indicate neglect or storage-related degradation. The intervals between tests—around 6,000 miles—are slightly shorter than the maximum 12-month or 12,000-mile threshold, ensuring the vehicle has not been driven beyond legal limits since the last inspection. This pattern implies regular, if not particularly rigorous, servicing, though it does not account for non-MOT-related maintenance such as fluid changes or brake pad replacements, which are critical for long-term reliability. Given the clean MOT history, the primary focus of an in-person inspection should centre on components not routinely assessed during the test. The suspension system—particularly the rear coil springs and bushes—should be examined for uneven wear or corrosion, as these are prone to gradual degradation over 45,000 miles. Binding calipers or unevenly worn brake discs, while not flagged in the MOT, could develop if the vehicle has been driven with inconsistent braking habits. Additionally, the hybrid battery and cooling system, though not MOT-tested, warrant scrutiny, as PHEV-specific failures often manifest silently until critical. Structural corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should also be checked, as this is a common failure point for vehicles of this age and mileage.
