2010 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · AF10 XNJ

The 2010 Peugeot 3008’s most recent MOT on 2024-10-23 at 126,853 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. However, the prior test on 2024-10-21 at the same mileage failed without recorded defects, suggesting potential procedural inconsistencies or minor issues resolved between tests. Subsequent MOTs from 2023-11-02 and 2022-11-03 also passed without defects, confirming a lack of recurring mechanical failures. The vehicle’s roadworthiness appears intact, but the absence of defect details in failed tests limits clarity on underlying concerns. Mileage progression shows consistent annual usage of approximately 7,928 miles, aligning with typical patterns for a 16-year-old vehicle. From 113,757 miles in 2022 to 126,853 in 2024, the car has accrued 13,096 miles over two years, reflecting moderate but steady operation. No significant gaps or spikes in mileage are evident, though the lack of recent MOT data beyond October 2024 raises questions about compliance. The clean MOT history suggests no major mechanical or structural issues, but the vehicle’s age necessitates scrutiny of components prone to wear. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, which commonly degrade in older models. Brake components, including calipers and discs, should be checked for binding or corrosion, as these can develop without visible MOT failures. Structural integrity, particularly around the chassis and body panels, warrants attention due to the car’s age. While the MOT records show no critical faults, the absence of detailed defect reports in failed tests underscores the need for a hands-on assessment to confirm the vehicle’s condition.
