2013 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · CV13 ACU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent MOT test on 11 September 2024 at 118,303 miles. This test resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety and environmental standards. While the history shows a pattern of initial failures followed by immediate passes in both 2022 and 2024, the previous owners have consistently rectified the identified faults to ensure the vehicle remains roadworthy. The mileage progression is remarkably consistent for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,100 miles per year. Between September 2022 at 93,037 miles and September 2023 at 104,612 miles, the car covered 11,575 miles, with a further 13,691 miles recorded in the final year leading up to the most recent test. This steady usage pattern suggests a regular driving cycle, which is generally beneficial for mechanical components and rubber seals compared to a vehicle subjected to long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific areas that caused the failures in 2022 and 2024, although the provided record does not detail the exact nature of those defects. Given the age and mileage, a thorough check of the suspension bushes and coil springs is necessary, as these are common points of wear on this model. The buyer should also examine the brake discs for signs of excessive corrosion and check the structural integrity of the underbody to ensure no hidden rust is developing despite the last clean test.
