2013 Peugeot 2008 1.6L Diesel · A20 EAS

As a 1.6L diesel, this Peugeot 2008 is designed for efficiency on longer journeys, though real-world fuel economy will depend heavily on how well the emissions system is functioning. You should check the specific tax band and insurance group, but typically, this model falls into a moderate bracket.

Maintenance costs may be higher than average due to the vehicle's age and mileage. Expect more frequent replacements of wear-and-tear items such as tyres, brake pads, and suspension components, as evidenced by the MOT history. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance, is likely to be in the mid-range for a small diesel crossover.

Pay close attention to the exhaust system and engine performance; the failure in February 2026 for exceeding emissions limits is a primary concern. During a test drive, listen for any unusual noises from the front suspension, as the 2025 MOT noted a damaged nearside track rod end ball joint dust cover.

Check the condition of all four tyres. The 2023 MOT recorded both front tyres being worn close to the legal limit, suggesting that tyre maintenance may have been reactive rather than proactive. Additionally, inspect the underside for any signs of leaks or excessive corrosion, which is common in high-mileage diesel vehicles.
