2013 Peugeot 5008 1.6L Diesel · FP13 SBY

The vehicle maintains a technically roadworthy status, though the history reveals a pattern of immediate rectification requirements. The most recent test in July 2024 at 191,642 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just one day prior at nearly identical mileage. This suggests that minor non-compliance or consumable issues are addressed immediately upon failure rather than indicating a deep-seated mechanical decline. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has consistently passed without accumulating advisories over the last three years. At 191,642 miles over 13 years, this Peugeot has averaged approximately 14,700 miles per annum, which significantly exceeds the national average for its age. The data shows consistent usage, with roughly 14,000 miles covered between July 2022 and July 2023, and another 16,000 miles covered in the following year. This high-frequency high-mileage profile places considerable stress on drivetrain components, turbochargers, and suspension geometry compared to lower-mileage examples. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on heavy-wear components most susceptible to high-mileage fatigue. Given the lack of recorded advisories, the structural integrity of the sills and subframes is vital to verify to ensure no hidden corrosion is developing. The brake system requires checking for disc thinning and binding calipers, as the high mileage often accelerates hardware wear. Additionally, inspect suspension bushes and shock absorbers for signs of tearing or leaking, as the consistent annual mileage accumulation puts these rubber and hydraulic components at risk of failure.
