2021 Peugeot 5008 GT Puretech S/S Auto 1.2L Petrol · EU21 ADZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the most recent inspection indicates a lapse in basic consumable maintenance. While the car passed its test in January 2026 at 51,103 miles, it followed a failure just eight days prior at 50,618 miles. This failure was due to all four tyres being either below the legal tread limit or showing significant edge wear, suggesting that the previous owner neglected tyre replacement until the MOT test forced the issue. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. There is a notable gap of nearly 5,000 miles between the April 2024 and January 2025 tests, followed by a rapid accumulation of 18,881 miles in the twelve months leading up to the 2026 inspection. This recent spike in usage suggests the vehicle is now being used for significant commuting, which typically places higher stress on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to low-mileage city-driven cars. A prospective buyer should specifically inspect the suspension geometry and alignment, as the recurring edge wear noted on the tyres in the January 2026 record often points to tracking issues or worn suspension bushes. Given the recent high mileage accumulation, the brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or excessive glazing. The MOT history shows no structural corrosion or mechanical failures, but the reactive nature of the tyre maintenance indicates a philosophy that only addresses issues once they become legal liabilities.
