2019 Peugeot 3008 1.2L Petrol · GD19 XMZ

The most recent DVSA examination on 17 July 2026 resulted in a clean pass with no advisories or defects recorded, which represents the strongest result on the vehicle's MOT history and suggests that any outstanding concerns from the previous test have been satisfactorily rectified. Looking across the full five-year record, the maintenance trend shows a minor dip in 2025 when the vehicle failed on a windscreen washer fluid deficiency and a mismatched nearside front tyre with the spare wheel temporarily in use, but this appears to have been addressed given the subsequent clean pass. Advisories have been broadly consistent year on year, predominantly concerning rear tyre wear and rear brake component condition, which is entirely typical of a vehicle in its seventh year of service. The 2026 pass therefore indicates a stable and improving maintenance position rather than any progressive deterioration. With 74,005 miles recorded over seven years, this Peugeot 3008 has averaged approximately 10,572 miles per annum, which sits firmly within the expected range for a family SUV of this type and points to consistent, regular use rather than long periods of standing or unusually high motorway mileage. There are no significant gaps or sudden leaps in the recorded mileage that would suggest clock irregularities or extended periods of inactivity, which is reassuring because lower-mileage Peugeot 3008s of this generation can suffer from seized handbrake mechanisms, binding calipers, and premature brake disc corrosion due to lack of use. The mileage profile here indicates that mechanical components such as the clutch, turbocharger, dual-mass flywheel, and suspension have all been worked sufficiently to remain in good working order, provided servicing has been carried out at the appropriate intervals. The recurring advisory items on the rear tyres being worn close to the legal limit or on the inner edge are worth taking seriously on inspection, as edge wear on a rear axle typically points either to misalignment, inconsistent tyre pressures, or worn suspension bushes and coil springs allowing inconsistent camber. On a test drive, listen for any clonking or knocking from the rear suspension over speed humps and uneven surfaces, and verify that the tracking is within tolerance by checking for any steering pull. The rear brake pad and disc advisories from 2022 and 2024 indicate that consumable wear on the rear axle has been progressing steadily, so the brake discs and pads should be physically inspected for remaining thickness, and the caliper slide pins should be checked for free movement and corrosion. Any shudder through the brake pedal under firm application would suggest the rear discs have now worn beyond their service limit. Beyond the recorded items, prospective buyers should perform several age and mileage appropriate checks. Tyre sidewalls should be examined closely for perishing and cracking given that original specification rubber fitted seven years ago would now be significantly aged, even where tread depth is acceptable. The 12 volt battery health should be verified, as Peugeot 3008s of this era are known to suffer early battery failure particularly in vehicles with stop-start functionality, and a weak battery can trigger numerous electronic warnings. Coolant level was noted as low at the 2025 test, so the cooling system should be checked for leaks at the thermostat housing, radiator, and water pump, and consideration given to a coolant renewal if service history does not confirm recent attention. Finally, confirm the timing belt or chain service interval compliance, verify that the service book stamps align with the recorded mileage, and ensure the i-Cockpit infotainment and instrument panel display correctly, as electronic faults are a known weakness on this model.
