2015 Peugeot 3008 Active HDI 1.6L Diesel · FL03 KCE

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection on 27 June 2025 at 80,201 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reveals a consistent pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the vehicle failed the test within a month of the scheduled date before passing shortly thereafter. This suggests the previous owner follows a reactive maintenance strategy, addressing mechanical faults only when necessitated by the legal testing requirement rather than performing proactive preventative care that would avoid these failures. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 80,201 miles represents an average of approximately 7,300 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-intensity usage for a diesel SUV. The data shows consistent usage between annual tests, with roughly 8,000 miles covered between June 2023 and June 2024, and approximately 4,700 miles between June 2024 and June 2025. This regularity indicates that the drivetrain and engine have not been subjected to extreme stress, though the age of the vehicle means rubber and plastic components may be subject to degradation regardless of the low mileage. Because the MOT record does not list the specific reasons for the recent failures, a buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of common failure points on the Peugeot 3008. Focus on the front suspension for worn bushes and perished coil springs, as these frequently cause immediate MOT failures on this model. Inspect the brake system for uneven wear or binding calipers and check the structural integrity of the exhaust system for excessive corrosion. Given the recurring test failures, it is essential to verify that the underlying issues were fully corrected rather than merely patched to prevent a failure during the next inspection cycle.
