2018 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · DP67 GFG

The vehicle presents a generally clean MOT history, though the most recent inspection indicates the onset of mechanical component wear. In the November 2025 test at 76,917 miles, the tester flagged wear on both the nearside and offside front suspension arm pins or bushes, along with a slight play detected in the offside front suspension arm ball joint. While these issues did not result in a failure this time, they suggest that the front suspension components are nearing their service life. This test also noted both rear tyres were worn close to the legal limit and on the edge, mirroring a concern seen in the January 2023 test. At 76,917 miles over eight years, the car has averaged approximately 9,600 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a modern crossover. The record shows a period of excellent maintenance between 2022 and 2024, where the vehicle passed two tests with zero defects recorded between 34,700 and 64,821 miles. However, the interval between the December 2024 test and November 2025 saw the vehicle cover another 12,000 miles, which coincides with the appearance of the suspension advisories and tyre wear. A prospective buyer should prioritize an inspection of the front suspension geometry to ensure the play in the ball joint and bushes has not progressed beyond a point that affects handling. The recurring mention of uneven tyre wear on the rear suggests a potential alignment issue or worn shock absorbers that should be addressed. Beyond these consumable and minor wear items, the vehicle shows no history of structural integrity issues or recurring mechanical failures, indicating a stable maintenance trend despite the current need for suspension-related attention.
