2020 Peugeot 5008 1.6L Petrol · EU70 ADO

The 2020 Peugeot 5008 demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-10-13 confirming a pass at 69,552 miles. However, a prior failure on 2025-10-10 at 69,430 miles—just three days earlier—raises questions about the consistency of the testing process. No defects were recorded in either test, suggesting the failure may have been a procedural error or a minor non-compliance resolved swiftly. The absence of recorded faults in the 2024 and 2023 MOTs indicates the vehicle has maintained compliance with safety standards over the past three years. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage, averaging 11,592 miles annually. A notable jump from 32,094 miles (2023-10-06) to 51,104 miles (2024-10-11) suggests increased usage over 12 months, which could accelerate wear on components like brake discs, suspension bushes, and exhaust emissions systems. The lack of defects in these tests implies the vehicle has been well-maintained, though the rapid mileage accumulation warrants scrutiny of brake pad thickness and suspension integrity during a physical inspection. A buyer should prioritise checking the rear brakes, as repeated MOTs without defects may mask underlying issues like binding calipers or uneven disc wear. The absence of corrosion or structural defects in the records is reassuring, but a thorough examination of the exhaust system and underbody for rust is recommended. The 2025 failure, though unexplained, underscores the importance of verifying service history and ensuring all repairs were completed to standard. Overall, the vehicle appears mechanically sound but requires a hands-on assessment to confirm its condition.
