2017 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · HIB 3224

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass in March 2026 at 48,266 miles which recorded zero defects. This indicates that any previously identified issues have been addressed since the last testing cycle. While the history shows intermittent consumable-related failures, the progression to a clean test sheet suggests the vehicle is currently in a good mechanical state regarding regulatory compliance. At nine years old, the recorded mileage of 48,266 miles represents a low usage profile of approximately 5,360 miles per annum. The mileage accumulation is consistent over the recorded period, with roughly 5,000 miles driven between each annual test from March 2022 to March 2026. This low-mileage typically implies less mechanical strain on the drivetrain, engine components, and suspension assembly, though it can increase the risk of rubber-based components perishing or degrading if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods between uses. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the tyres, as the 2023 and 2025 tests flagged issues with cracking, perishing, and uneven wear on the offside rear and nears front tyres. The edge wear noted on the nearside front in 2025 suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be verified. Given the age and low mileage, the buyer should also check for dry cracking in the rubber hoses and suspension arm bushings, as these components often age faster than they wear out on low-use vehicles.
