2018 Peugeot 5008 1.6L Diesel · LXZ 6044

The 2018 Peugeot 5008 presents a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent test on 13 August 2025 at 102,031 miles returning a clean pass and no defects recorded. Prior annual tests in July 2024 at 91,468 miles and July 2023 at 77,827 miles also passed without advisories, indicating the vehicle has sustained a consistent maintenance standard across its later life. The only blemish is a failed test on 19 July 2023 at 77,826 miles, where the DVSA record shows no defects listed; the owner rectified this and passed twelve days later, suggesting an administrative or unlogged minor issue rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage sits at 102,031 over roughly eight years, averaging 12,754 miles annually and placing the car above typical use for its age. The record shows steady accumulation: 56,396 miles in July 2022, 77,827 by July 2023, 91,468 by July 2024, and 102,031 by August 2025. No standing periods or sudden jumps appear. The sparse five-entry history with clean passes outside the anomalous 2023 failure implies the previous keeper kept basic upkeep current, though the high annual distance means consumable and drivetrain wear will track above average. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the mileage, as these components accrue fatigue invisible to a defect-free MOT. The tester logged no corrosion or structural integrity concerns across the record, yet eight years of high-use motoring can hide sub-surface exhaust or subframe degradation. Verify the 19 July 2023 failure paperwork to confirm no suppressed advisory existed. Check tyre tread depth and wiper condition as routine consumables, and request service invoices to corroborate the clean MOT pattern. The Peugeot shows no recurring mechanical trend requiring alarm, but the high miles warrant scrutiny of the timing belt and clutch if manual.
