2012 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · AF62 UKT

The vehicle presents a positive roadworthiness profile, showing a stable maintenance trend following a minor setback. The most recent test in October 2025 at 123,840 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car is currently meeting all safety and environmental standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components have been maintained to a standard that satisfies the MOT testing requirements. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage between January 2023 and October 2024, where the car covered over 20,000 miles in roughly twenty months. However, the rate has moderated since, with 12,500 miles recorded between the October 2024 and October 2025 tests. The shortgap failure in January 2024, followed by a pass just two days later, indicates a minor compliance issue that was addressed immediately rather than a pattern of mechanical neglect. A buyer should focus on the specific cause of the January 2024 failure, although the record does not detail the defect for that specific entry. Given the mileage of over 123,000 miles, a physical inspection should prioritize the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs, which are common points of wear on Peugeot models of this age. Checking for corrosion on the exhaust system and the state of the brake lines is also prudent, as the lack of recent MOT advisories does not rule out natural degradation of these consumable components over time.
