2012 PEUGEOT 5082.0L Diesel

The 2012 Peugeot 508 presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its most recent MOT on 2025-06-12 at 146,676 miles, which resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. The prior test on 2024-06-22 at 139,111 miles also passed without issues, suggesting consistent maintenance. However, a failure on 2024-06-15 at 138,867 miles—despite no defects listed—raises minor concern, though the absence of recorded faults in subsequent tests implies the issue was likely resolved. Overall, the vehicle shows no evidence of worsening mechanical or structural problems in the last 18 months. The mileage of 146,676 miles over 14 years equates to an average of 10,477 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for its age. The MOT history reveals a regular testing pattern, with intervals of approximately 12 months. Notably, the 2023-06-24 test at 130,340 miles and 2022-06-25 at 120,007 miles both passed without defects, indicating no significant mechanical degradation in the preceding years. The data lacks gaps or abrupt mileage spikes, suggesting consistent, moderate usage rather than periods of inactivity or excessive wear. A buyer should conduct a detailed inspection of the suspension system, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The 2024 failure, though unexplained, warrants scrutiny of brake components, including calipers and discs, to confirm no hidden issues persist. Structural integrity should also be verified, as rust or corrosion can develop in older models. While the MOT record shows no critical faults, the absence of detailed defect descriptions means a physical check is essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition remains sound.
