2016 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · MW65 AAN

The 2016 Peugeot 2008 presents as roadworthy on the most recent test, passing on 14 March 2026 at 39,459 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable. The DVSA history shows clean passes in 2024 and 2026, though both 2025 and 2026 entries list an initial failure at identical mileage to the subsequent pass on the same day, with no defects cited. Such paired fail-pass entries without recorded faults typically point to administrative re-tests rather than mechanical rectification, and they do not indicate a worsening condition. The recorded mileage sits at 39,459 miles against a ten-year age, an average of roughly 3,946 miles per year. The car covered only 575 miles between the March 2024 test at 38,564 miles and the March 2025 test at 39,139 miles, then 320 miles to the March 2026 test. This low, slowly accumulating use suggests extended standing periods. Sparse test data with no advisories across all three years limits insight into wear on consumables, but the minimal movement implies light urban use rather than neglected high-mileage abuse. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's low-use profile, as prolonged inactivity promotes corrosion and seized components such as binding calipers. The MOT record flags no structural integrity concerns or exhaust emissions failures, yet the same-day fail-pass pattern in 2025 and 2026 warrants confirmation that no hidden brake or tyre defect was loosely cleared at test. Check underneath for rust on subframes and inspect tyre sidewalls for perishing from standing. The clean advisory history offers reassurance, but low mileage alone does not certify mechanical health without a hands-on check of drivetrain seals and steering joints.
