2010 PEUGEOT 30081.6L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, passing its most recent MOT on 28 May 2025 at 102,160 miles with no recorded defects. While the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes, the car has maintained a clean record for the last two years. This suggests that the previous owners are proactive in rectifying identified issues immediately prior to annual testing, ensuring the vehicle does not currently exhibit a trend of worsening mechanical degradation or structural decay. The mileage profile is consistent with typical usage for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,385 miles per year. There is a notable jump of 13,000 miles recorded between October 2023 and May 2024, followed by another 18,874 miles in the year leading up to the 2025 test. This increase in usage indicates a recent period of higher demand, which typically accelerates wear on components such as suspension bushes, shock absorbers, and tyres. However, the overall figure remains within reasonable parameters for a petrol SUV of this age. A physical inspection should focus on the components most likely to trigger the failures seen in 2024 and 2025. Given the failures occurred just days before the passes, the buyer should check for signs of recent work on bulbs, wipers, or minor leaks that may have been replaced. Because of the age and recent mileage spike, a close look at the corrosion on the structural members and the condition of the brake lines is essential to ensure no hidden rust is developing despite the current clean MOT sheets.
