2012 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · SG62 ABN

The 2012 Peugeot 3008 is currently roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 2025-10-24 at 122,143 miles recording no defects. However, the vehicle experienced two consecutive MOT failures in November 2024 at 119,409 and 119,340 miles, both without recorded defects. These failures suggest potential maintenance oversights or unresolved issues, though the subsequent pass in 2025 indicates resolution. The trend shows stability in the last 12 months, but the 2024 failures warrant scrutiny to confirm whether underlying problems were addressed. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging 8,724 miles annually. The MOT records show consistent testing intervals, with no significant gaps between assessments. The 2023-10-18 test at 115,334 miles passed without issues, followed by a steady increase to 122,143 miles. The absence of major defects in the latest test suggests no critical mechanical deterioration, though the 2024 failures imply intermittent care. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as repeated MOTs without defects may mask gradual wear. Brake components, including discs and calipers, should be checked for corrosion or binding, particularly given the 2024 failures. Exhaust emissions and structural integrity should also be verified, as minor faults in these areas could escalate. The vehicle’s maintenance history does not indicate severe damage, but a pre-purchase inspection is essential to confirm the absence of hidden issues.
