2022 Peugeot 3008 GT S/S Phev Auto 1.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · AF22 VLJ

The most recent MOT on 30 April 2026 was passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle presently meets the statutory safety and emissions standards. The only blemish in the four‑year MOT record is the advisory from the 10 April 2025 test noting that the off‑side rear inner brake disc is worn, pitted or scored, though not yet deemed structurally compromised. This suggests that while the overall maintenance trend has remained acceptable, the brake system is beginning to show wear that will likely require remedial attention before the next service interval. At 80 971 miles the 2022 Peugeot 3008 GT S/S PHEV has accumulated roughly 20 200 miles per annum, a usage rate well above the average for a vehicle of its age. Such mileage points to a relatively high level of component fatigue, particularly for wear items such as brake pads, discs, tyre tread, suspension bushings and engine oil. The mileage pattern also implies that the car has been driven regularly rather than sitting idle for long periods, which reduces the risk of calendar‑related corrosion but increases the demand on consumables and the high‑voltage battery’s charge‑cycle life. A prospective buyer should give the rear brake assembly a thorough visual and tactile inspection. Look for any uneven disc surface, deep scoring or excessive rust on the off‑side rear inner disc, and confirm that the brake pads have sufficient remaining thickness. During a test‑drive listen for a low‑frequency shudder or pulsation when applying the rear brakes, especially under moderate deceleration, as these are classic symptoms of a disc approaching the end of its service life. If any of these signs are present, budgeting for a disc replacement – and possibly the opposite side for symmetry – would be prudent before the next MOT. Beyond the brake system, examine the tyre tread depth and sidewall condition; at this age, tyre rubber can perish even with adequate tread, so look for cracking, dry rot or bulges. Verify that the 12‑volt battery is holding charge and that the high‑voltage PHEV battery shows no warning lights and has a recent state‑of‑health report, as battery capacity can diminish with intensive use. Check the condition of the suspension components – especially the front coil springs, lower control arm bushes and rear anti‑roll bar links – for any clunking or excessive play. Finally, confirm that the service book contains stamps for regular oil, coolant and brake‑fluid changes, and that the plug‑in charging port and associated wiring are free from corrosion, ensuring the hybrid system remains reliable.
