2016 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · DA16 HYR

The 2016 Peugeot 2008 is currently roadworthy, as the latest MOT on 10 February 2026 at 61,486 miles recorded a pass with no defects. The preceding test on 9 February 2026 at 61,476 miles also yielded a pass despite a failure notice, indicating no recurring mechanical faults. Mileage has risen from 35,520 miles in the February 2023 test to 61,486 miles in the February 2026 test, an increase of 25,966 miles over three years, or roughly 8,655 miles per year, which aligns with the typical usage for a ten‑year‑old vehicle. The interval between tests averages about twelve months, with no extended periods of inactivity evident. A buyer should therefore focus on suspension components such as bushes and coil springs, brake discs and calipers, and check for binding calipers or uneven wear, as these items commonly exhibit deterioration after six to eight years of service. Inspection of the exhaust system for corrosion, the condition of structural panels for rust, and verification of the handbrake’s mechanical linkage are also advisable, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. While the MOT history shows no recorded defects, the absence of noted wear items such as tyre tread depth or wiper blade condition suggests that consumable maintenance may have been deferred; a physical examination will confirm whether the vehicle’s structural integrity and mechanical health remain sound.
