2011 Peugeot 3008 2.0L Diesel · GF61 ACY

The vehicle currently lacks a valid MOT certificate, as the last recorded test occurred on 10 February 2023. While that final test at 224,143 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, the car has been off the official testing circuit for over three years. The maintenance trend appears stable based on the lack of recorded advisories, but the absence of recent data makes it impossible to confirm the current roadworthiness of the chassis or powertrain. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high and inconsistent. Between 5 October 2020 and 5 October 2021, the odometer jumped from 99,253 to 180,260 miles, representing an increase of 80,997 miles in a single year. A further 43,883 miles were added by February 2023. This pattern suggests periods of intense commercial or long-distance use, which places significant stress on the engine internals, gearbox, and suspension components far beyond typical consumer wear. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these components rarely survive 224,000 miles without multiple replacements. The high mileage increases the risk of hidden structural corrosion and drivetrain fatigue. Check for oil leaks and evaluate the condition of the brake discs and calipers, as the record provides no evidence of recent preventative maintenance to offset the extreme mileage. Given the three-year gap since the last MOT, the vehicle may have suffered from seal degradation or battery failure due to standing. Verify the current state of the tyres and ensure the exhaust system remains secure and leak-free before considering the car roadworthy.
