2016 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · DG66 AXZ

The most recent MOT on 2025-09-29 recorded multiple defects, including wear on all four brake discs, minor exhaust leaks, and tyre perishing. These issues were also present in an earlier 2025-09-26 failed test, suggesting persistent mechanical concerns. The 2025 pass followed a 2024 MOT that noted rear brake disc wear and exhaust issues, indicating a pattern of recurring problems. The vehicle’s condition shows a stable trend of minor defects rather than worsening. Brake disc wear, tyre perishing, and exhaust mounting issues have persisted across multiple tests without significant escalation. However, the 2025 failed MOT revealed additional tyre damage, including a cut reaching the ply, which may indicate neglect or exposure to harsh conditions. The low mileage of 14,816 miles (about 1,482 miles per year) suggests the car has seen light use or periods of inactivity. This could explain brake disc wear from infrequent driving and tyre perishing due to prolonged standing. However, the mileage alone does not confirm whether the vehicle was stored properly or driven under normal conditions. Key risks include continued brake disc degradation, which may require replacement if further worn, and tyre safety, as perishing or damage could compromise handling.
