2020 Peugeot 3008 1.2L Petrol · GF70 YTO

The 2020 Peugeot 3008 presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 7 August 2025 at 44,255 miles with zero defects recorded. That result marks a clear step forward from the preceding years, where the vehicle failed its August 2024 test on four separate items before passing a retest on the same day. The most recent certificate confirms that all previously flagged lighting and tyre issues were rectified and have not recurred, suggesting attentive remedial work by the current keeper. The mileage progression tells a consistent story. Between the September 2023 test at 29,366 miles and the August 2024 test at 37,763 miles, the vehicle covered 8,397 miles in roughly eleven months, a rate slightly above the annual average of approximately 7,376 miles. The gap from August 2024 to August 2025 added only 6,492 miles, indicating a modest reduction in annual use during the most recent period. No suspicious mileage gaps or reversals appear in the record, and the overall accumulation aligns with typical mixed-use driving for a six-year-old vehicle. The recurring theme across the history is tyre wear, flagged in both the 2023 and 2024 tests. A nail puncture in the nearside rear tyre in September 2023 and subsequent advisories on both rear tyres being worn close to the legal limit in August 2024 point to uneven wear patterns. A prospective buyer should inspect the rear suspension geometry, including suspension bushes and tracking alignment, to determine whether the wear stems from misalignment or simply from deferred rotation. The dual headlamp failure on dipped beam and the inoperative registration plate lamp during the 2024 failure were resolved for the retest, but a buyer should verify all exterior lighting functions, including auto-levelling if fitted, and check for any moisture ingress into lamp units. Given the clean 2025 result, no structural corrosion or mechanical defects currently appear on record, though an in-person underbody inspection remains prudent to confirm the integrity of brake lines, exhaust mounting points, and subframe condition on a vehicle of this age and mileage.
