2014 Peugeot 5008 1.6L Diesel · LN64 ADU

The 2026‑05‑20 MOT at 125,209 miles passes, confirming current roadworthiness, but the preceding 2026‑05‑14 failure shows that brake and lighting defects were present only days earlier, indicating a recent corrective action rather than a stable history. The vehicle’s 12‑year lifespan is reflected in an average annual mileage of about 10,400 miles, yet the record shows uneven usage: a jump from 69,800 miles in January 2021 to 71,613 miles in May 2021, then a rapid increase to 82,136 miles by February 2022, and continued steep climbs to 125,209 miles by May 2026, with the most recent 6‑day increment of 11 miles being negligible. A buyer should focus on the recurring brake wear – rear discs repeatedly pitted or scored and rear pads thin – and the persistent tyre edge wear, which suggests mis‑aligned suspension or worn bushes; the off‑side rear parking brake showing low effort points to cable or mechanism fatigue, while the missing off‑side rearview mirror and under‑shield rust indicate structural concerns that may affect long‑term integrity. The oil leak, though not excessive, warrants verification of the source, and the repeated failures of the near‑side front tyre (cuts and bulge) confirm that tyre condition and suspension health should be examined closely. Given the pattern of intermittent failures and the mileage trajectory, the car is presently roadworthy but requires thorough in‑person inspection of suspension components, brake condition, tyre integrity, and rust‑prone structural areas before purchase.
