2014 Peugeot 2008 1.6L Diesel · EU14 WVB

A remarkably consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, which has achieved six consecutive clean passes without a single advisory or defect since February 2021. This stable trend culminated in the most recent pass on 18 February 2026, indicating a lack of recurring mechanical failures over the last several years. Earlier records from 2019 and 2020 show only minor issues related to rear tyre wear and a windscreen chip, suggesting that the vehicle has remained fundamentally compliant with DVSA standards throughout its testing history. With 142,223 miles recorded over approximately 12 years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 11,852 miles per year. This usage pattern is typical for its age and indicates consistent road use rather than prolonged periods of standing. At this mileage, mechanical wear is expected on high-friction consumables and load-bearing components, particularly within the drivetrain and suspension systems, which are subject to greater fatigue than in lower-mileage examples. Given the history of rear tyre wear noted in 2020, a physical inspection of the current tyre tread depth and alignment is necessary to ensure even wear across all four corners. While the recent MOTs are clean, the high overall mileage warrants a focused test drive to identify wear in the suspension bushes and steering rack. Listen for knocks or clunks when traversing uneven surfaces and check for any steering pull or vibration at higher speeds, which could indicate worn linkages or wheel misalignment. Attention should also be paid to the braking system, specifically checking for pedal judder or binding calipers, as these components naturally degrade over 140,000 miles. The windscreen should be inspected for any remaining chips or cracks that may have persisted since the 2019 record. Finally, a check for oil misting or leaks around the engine bay is advisable, as high-mileage engines can develop seal leaks that may not always trigger an MOT failure unless they are excessive.
