2019 Peugeot 2008 1.5L Diesel · DC68 ACF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a minor lapse in proactive upkeep. The most recent test on 13 July 2026 at 43,967 miles resulted in a failure due to an inoperative registration plate lamp and corroded exhaust hangers. While these issues were rectified to secure a pass the same day, the failure suggests the owner may only address faults when prompted by a tester rather than performing preventative inspections. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 6,200 miles per year over seven years. There is a significant gap in usage between February 2024 at 9,599 miles and July 2025 at 26,461 miles, representing over 16,000 miles driven in a single year. Despite the low annual average, the July 2024 test flagged both nearside and offside front tyres as being close to the legal limit and bald on the outer tread, indicating potential alignment issues or a failure to replace consumables during that period of activity. A buyer should physically inspect the exhaust system to ensure that the corrosion noted in the latest test has not progressed to the main piping or catalytic converter. Given the previous report of uneven tyre wear, a thorough check of the front geometry and suspension bushes is necessary to rule out tracking-related components. While the vehicle shows a clean history regarding structural integrity and brake performance, the intermittent nature of minor electrical and mechanical faults warrants a close look at external lighting and rubber components before purchase.
