2020 Peugeot 3008 1.2L Petrol · CU20 WTX

The Peugeot 3008 presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 28 August 2025 at 55,740 miles, with the maintenance trend reading stable across the available record. The August 2025 test shows a curious paired entry: a fail and a pass logged on the same day at identical mileage, both with no defects recorded. This points to an administrative re-test rather than a mechanical fault, and the subsequent pass confirms the vehicle met requirements at that point. Prior tests in July 2023 at 47,152 miles and July 2024 at 51,175 miles also passed with no advisories, so the history shows no worsening pattern of wear or recurring defects. Annual mileage sits at roughly 9,290 miles based on the 2020 build year and 55,740 recorded miles, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. The record itself is sparse, with only four entries and clean passes throughout aside from the unexplained same-day fail in 2025. From July 2023 to July 2024 the car covered 4,023 miles; by August 2025 it had added only 4,565 miles over thirteen months. Such low, steady accumulation suggests light use rather than prolonged standing, and the absence of any flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, or brake issues implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of consumable items not captured by a clean MOT, notably brake disc thickness, tyre sidewall condition, and underbody structural integrity for early corrosion. The DVSA record notes no advisories on coil springs, binding calipers, or exhaust emissions, yet these components degrade with age irrespective of mileage. Given the car is now near six years old, scrutinise the condition of suspension arms and flexible brake hoses during any viewing. The same-day fail and pass in August 2025 warrants a check of the DVSA portal for the original refusal reason, even though no defects appear on the current certificate. If that entry reflected a documentation or equipment fault rather than a mechanical one, the 3008 remains a sound used purchase with a clean test lineage.
