2021 Peugeot 2008 Active Premium Ptech S/S 1.2L Petrol · BK71 ORT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent inspection indicates a minor regression in maintenance standards. Following a clean pass in 2024, the car failed its September 2025 MOT test due to an ineffective nearside front windscreen wiper and a misting nearside front shock absorber. These issues were rectified to secure a pass on the same day, suggesting the owner is reactive to MOT failures rather than proactively proactive. The mileage profile reflects low usage for a five-year-old vehicle, having covered only 29,952 miles since its registration. This averages to approximately 6,000 miles per annum, which is significantly below the national average. The interval between the September 2024 test at 20,261 miles and the September 2025 test shows an accumulation of nearly 9,700 miles, indicating consistent annual use that likely limits the wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to higher-mileage counterparts. A physical inspection should focus on the nearside front shock absorber to ensure the light misting noted in September 2025 has not progressed into a significant seal failure, which would compromise handling and lead to an immediate fail. The buyer should also verify the condition of the wiper blades and arm assembly to ensure the previous failure was properly resolved. Given the low annual mileage, it is also worth checking for rubber perish or brake corrosion on the discs, as vehicles that sit for longer periods can develop surface rust despite low odometer readings.
