2019 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · DC68 AAF

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT following a successful test on 19 January 2026 at 47,878 miles. The maintenance trend appears somewhat inconsistent, moving from clean passes to recent mechanical failures. While the most recent result shows no defects, the failure just five days prior on 14 January 2026 indicates that the vehicle requires proactive attention to consumables and emissions. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical low-to-mid usage pattern for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. The record shows steady progression from 15,876 miles in December 2021 to 47,878 miles in early 2026. There are no significant gaps in the testing history, suggesting the vehicle has been in regular use rather than sitting idle for extended periods. A prospective buyer should focus on the braking system and emissions. The January 2026 failure flagged thin front and rear brake pads, which suggests the vehicle is approaching a scheduled service interval for friction materials. The tester also noted an exhaust Lambda reading outside specified limits during the same test, which could indicate an issue with the oxygen sensor or the catalytic converter. Although this was rectified for the subsequent pass, the underlying engine management or exhaust efficiency warrants a diagnostic check. Electrical and tyre maintenance also show minor lapses. The registration plate lamp failed in both January 2024 and January 2026, pointing to a recurring minor electrical fault or bulb failure. While the tyre tread depth issue from 2024 was a one-off event, the recent brake pad wear confirms that the owner must monitor consumable components more closely to prevent further failures.
