2021 Peugeot 2008 Allure Premium Ptech S/S 1.2L Petrol · EK09 FEK

The most recent MOT test conducted on 5 January 2026 resulted in a pass with no recorded defects. Reviewing the consecutive test results from December 2024 and December 2023, the vehicle demonstrates a highly stable and consistent maintenance trend. The absence of any recorded failures or advisories across these inspections suggests that the vehicle has been well-maintained and has consistently met the required DVSA standards for structural integrity, braking performance, and emissions compliance. The recorded mileage of 38,254 miles over a five-year period equates to an annual average of approximately 7,651 miles. This usage profile is considered typical for a modern passenger vehicle and indicates a balanced level of wear. The vehicle has not been subjected to the heavy mechanical strain associated with high-mileage commercial use, nor does it show the extreme stagnation often seen in very low-mileage examples. Consequently, while the drivetrain and major mechanical components should be in good health, the vehicle is approaching the age where wear-and-tear items such as suspension bushes, coil springs, and braking components will require more frequent scrutiny. As the MOT history is entirely clean, your physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation that may not yet be evident in a standard test. Given the moderate mileage, it is vital to inspect the tyres for any signs of perishing, such as sidewall cracking or hardening of the rubber, which can occur due to age rather than tread wear. During the test drive, listen for any clunks or knocks from the suspension which might indicate worn bushes or dampers, and monitor the brake pedal for any shuddering or sponginess that could suggest warped discs or air in the system. Additionally, you should verify that the service history includes time-based fluid changes, as brake fluid and engine oil can degrade chemically even if the mileage remains low. Check for any signs of corrosion on the underbody or brake discs, which can result from the vehicle being parked for long periods. It is also advisable to test the 12V battery's charging system and ensure the hybrid components are functioning without warning lights on the dashboard. Finally, confirm that all service stamps are present in the service book to validate that the vehicle has been maintained according to the manufacturer's recommended schedule rather than solely based on the MOT intervals.
