2015 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel · FV65 FBO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in October 2025 with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive repairs where the owner addresses specific mechanical failures immediately following a test. While the October 2025 test initially failed due to ineffective windscreen wipers, the subsequent pass indicates the owner is willing to maintain the vehicle to legal standards when prompted, rather than allowing faults to persist long-term. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 53,024 miles represents low annual usage, averaging approximately 4,820 miles per year. This profile often suggests short-distance commuting or extended periods of inactivity. Between October 2023 and October 2025, the vehicle covered 6,546 miles, confirming a consistent low-mile profile. However, low mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from the degradation of rubber components, seals, and brake hardware due to lack of regular use rather than simple mechanical wear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and steering assembly. The 2024 test flagged nearside play in the steering rack inner joints, and the 2023 test identified both front shock absorbers with negligible damping effects. While these were likely replaced, a physical inspection should check for any remaining fluid leaks from the dampers or lateral play to ensure the steering remains firm. The history of uneven tyre wear in 2023 also suggests potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that should be verified during a test drive to ensure the low mileage hasn't masked premature wear of the control arms or coil springs.
