2018 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · AE18 MXJ

The Peugeot 2008 presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 27 March 2026 at 86,257 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with every annual examination from March 2024 onward clearing clean. A buyer should note the two failed entries on the same dates as the passes in 2025 and 2026, both logged at identical mileages with no defects cited, which points to administrative re-tests rather than mechanical faults. The recorded mileage shows typical use for an eight-year-old vehicle. In the 22 March 2024 test the odometer read 66,605 miles. By 17 March 2025 it stood at 75,798 miles, an annual gain of 9,193 miles. The 27 March 2026 test showed 86,257 miles, a 10,459-mile increase. These figures sit close to the 10,782-mile yearly average and reveal no rapid accumulation or long idle gaps. The DVSA history is sparse, carrying no advisories across any entry. Given the absence of recorded advisories or defects, the MOT data alone shows no recurring suspension, brake, or corrosion concerns. The clean run suggests previous owners kept basic statutory testing in order. The same-day fail-and-pass pairs in 2025 and 2026 imply paperwork or presentation issues at the centre, not deferred mechanical work. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of consumable items the MOT does not measure in depth. Check tyre tread depth, brake disc wear, and suspension bushes for age-related perishing. Verify the bodywork and subframes for structural rust despite the clean emissions and integrity results. The low-defect record supports a sound purchase, but in-person checks remain prudent on a vehicle of this mileage.
