2015 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · DU65 GGZ

The vehicle currently presents in a roadworthy state following a clean MOT pass in February 2026 at 97,988 miles. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory after a period of mechanical neglect in 2025. While the car previously failed a test with multiple defects, the subsequent re-test and the most recent inspection indicate that the identified mechanical and electrical faults were addressed, returning the vehicle to a standard level of operation. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage between June 2023 and May 2024, where the car covered over 9,000 miles in just eleven months. However, the interval stabilized with 9,000 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests. This steady usage suggests a regular driving pattern, which explains the wear and tear on rubber-based components and emissions seen in the record. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and drivetrain, as the history reveals recurring issues in these areas. The offside front drive shaft constant velocity boot was flagged as severely deteriorated in 2024 and subsequently split in 2025. Additionally, the anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust covers on both sides failed in 2025. An inspector should check for grease leakage around the drive joints and any play in the suspension linkage to ensure these repairs were thorough and high quality. The failure in May 2025 due to excessive CO emissions suggests a potential past issue with the fuel mixture or sensor health at that time. While the vehicle passed the following tests, the buyer should monitor the engine for rough idling or smoke to ensure the emissions system remains efficient. The lack of advisories regarding structural corrosion or brake components in the recent records is a positive indicator of the vehicle's condition despite its age.
