2016 Peugeot 508 2.0L Diesel · FV65 RKK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a clean pass in its most recent inspection. The latest MOT test conducted on 27 June 2025 at 87,911 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure occurred in June 2024, the immediate rectification and subsequent pass without advisories suggest the owner is proactive in addressing mechanical faults once identified by the tester. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per annum. Between June 2022 and June 2023, the car covered 9,186 miles, while the most recent interval saw 14,386 miles driven between the 2024 and 2025 tests. This steady usage suggests regular road miles rather than long periods of stagnation, which often leads to seal degradation and brake corrosion. The accumulation of miles is predictable and does not indicate unusual strain on the drivetrain or suspension components. Given the lack of recurring advisories in the history, a buyer should focus on a physical inspection of high-wear components that typically age at the 90,000-mile mark. Pay close attention to the suspension bushes and control arm joints, as these are common points of wear on this Peugeot platform. The record does not highlight structural rust or binding calipers, but a manual check for surface corrosion on the underside is necessary to ensure the integrity of the chassis. Checking the brake discs for thinning or uneven wear is also advised, as the MOT only tests for efficiency rather than remaining component life.
