2019 Peugeot 5008 1.2L Petrol · CA69 FEP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive service pattern. The most recent test in July 2025 at 38,854 miles resulted in a pass following a failure just one day prior. This failure identified a fractured nearside rear coil spring and a nearside front outer tyre reaching the legal limit. While the immediate faults were rectified, the trend suggests the owner only addresses mechanical issues when they trigger an MOT failure rather than performing scheduled preventative maintenance. At seven years of age, the Peugeot 5008 has covered approximately 5,550 miles per year, which is significantly below the national average for a family car. The mileage data shows consistent low-level usage, with 3,000 miles covered between July 2024 and July 2025. While low mileage generally reduces wear and tear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to accelerated corrosion on braking components if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods, which appears to be the cause of the recurring brake issues noted in the records. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the braking system and suspension components. The record shows a persistent issue with pitting and scoring across all four brake discs dating back to 2023 and 2024, suggesting the discs may not have been replaced alongside the pads or that the calipers are seizing due to moisture. Furthermore, the fractured coil spring noted in 2025 necessitates a thorough check of the remaining suspension springs for signs of stress or corrosion, as the failure of one spring often precedes the others in low-mileage vehicles exposed to environmental elements.
