2017 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · FL67 MPV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive repairs rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 78,588 miles passed, it followed a failure four days prior due to significant mechanical issues. The trend shows recurring failures such as a split offside front CV boot and high carbon monoxide emissions which appeared in both 2024 and 2025, suggesting the owner only addresses faults when they become legally necessary to pass the annual test. The mileage progression is consistent with typical UK usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year. Between the November 2023 test at 58,370 miles and the November 2024 test at 69,787 miles, the car covered over 11,000 miles. This steady use suggests the engine runs regularly, yet the failures related to emissions and drive shafts indicate that components are beginning to show age-related wear at this mileage interval. A buyer must physically inspect the offside front drive shaft to ensure the replacement of the split CV boot has resulted in a functional joint without further grease leakage. The recurring offside rear service brake binding noted in late 2024 requires a close check for seized caliper pistons or sticking slider pins which could lead to uneven pad wear. Additionally, the repeated high carbon monoxide readings in 2024 and 2025 warrant a check of the oxygen sensors and catalytic converter to ensure the fuel system is operating efficiently and not suffering from a deeper combustion fault.
