2018 Peugeot 3008 1.5L Diesel · FC02 ADE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having achieved a clean pass in February 2026 at 102,108 miles. The maintenance trend shows an improving phase following a significant failure in late 2024. While the most recent test recorded no mechanical or structural defects, the previous history of multiple component failures indicates that the owner has addressed necessary repairs to bring the car back to a legal standard. At 102,108 miles over eight years, this Peugeot has averaged approximately 12,700 miles per year, which sits above the national average for its age group. The data shows a notable acceleration in usage recently, with 10,152 miles covered between July 2023 and February 2026. This high rate of use suggests consistent motorway or commuter driving, which typically accelerates wear on consumable components like brakes and suspension, but also explains the rapid degradation of parts noted in the 2024 inspection. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension geometry, as the December 2024 failure flagged an excessively worn nearside front anti-roll bar linkage ball joint. Although the brake pads and discs were replaced or addressed after that test, the high mileage warrants a thorough check of the remaining braking hardware for signs of uneven wear or binding calipers. Ensure the windscreen washer system is fully functional, as this was a specific point of failure in the previous year and is often overlooked during basic maintenance.
