2019 Peugeot 508 2.0L Diesel · EX19 DHL

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 26 May 2026 with 169,697 miles without any recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the minor issues identified in previous years have been addressed. While the 2025 test flagged a component, the lack of defects in the latest inspection suggests the owner has responded to necessary service requirements. The data reveals a significant shift in usage patterns after early 2023. Between February 2023 and February 2024, the car covered only 69,615 miles, indicating relatively low use. However, the mileage then accelerated drastically, with 72,281 miles covered between the February 2024 and May 2026 tests. This average of over 24,000 miles per year is exceptionally high for a petrol vehicle and places considerable strain on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems compared to typical domestic use. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the braking and suspension systems due to this high-mileage accumulation. The 2025 advisory for thin rear brake pads at 165,782 miles indicates that consumables are reaching the end of their service life rapidly. Given the jump from 97,000 to 169,000 miles, the tester should check for signs of caliper wear, worn suspension bushes, and leaking shock absorbers which often fail under constant motorway use. The windscreen damage noted in 2024 should also be re-examined to ensure no cracks have developed since that entry.
