2018 PEUGEOT 30082.0L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 14 April 2026 at 98,249 miles. The maintenance trend appears to be reactive rather than proactive, as evidenced by a critical failure recorded just four days prior to the pass, at 98,144 miles due to an offside front track rod end ball joint with excessive play. While the fault was rectified to secure the pass, the history indicates that components are only being replaced once they reach a point of failure. At eight years old, this Peugeot 3008 has averaged approximately 12,281 miles per year, which sits above the national average for its age. The data shows consistent usage, with a significant jump of 16,650 miles recorded between September 2023 and September 2024, and another 10,629 miles between April 2025 and April 2026. This high mileage puts accelerated strain on wear-related components, particularly the suspension system and drivetrain, which are already showing signs of fatigue. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension geometry. The record shows a recurring issue with steering and stability components, specifically the deteriorated anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust covers in 2023 and the track rod failure in 2026. It is essential to check for further wear in rubber boots and play in the ball joints or bushings, as these parts are clearly nearing their service life. Given the mileage, the condition of the brake discs and the integrity of the exhaust system should also be verified, as high-frequency use often leads to accelerated corrosion and thinning in these areas.
