2013 Peugeot 5008 1.6L Diesel · GJ13 GXP

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift towards increasing mechanical wear on braking components. While the most recent test in January 2026 at 83,198 miles passed, it identified pitted and scored front brake discs alongside a damaged offside mirror. This follows a similar advisory from February 2025 where front inner brake discs were also flagged, suggesting that the front braking system is reaching the end of its service life and likely requires proactive replacement. At 83,198 miles over thirteen years, the Peugeot has averaged approximately 6,400 miles per annum, which aligns with typical low-useage for a family MPV. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 5,000 miles covered between January 2024 and February 2025, and another 4,500 miles between February 2025 and January 2026. This steady accumulation indicates the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of neglect, though the low annual mileage may contribute to the surface corrosion and pitting on the brake discs seen in the record. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the engine bay to address the oil leak noted in the 2025 test, as the tester deemed it not excessive at the time but such leaks can worsen if left un. Given the previous failure for a worn offside front tyre in 2024, the current condition of all four tyres should be checked for uneven wear, which could indicate alignment issues. Furthermore, the recurring issues with front brake discs necessitate a physical check of the pad thickness and caliper condition to ensure they are not binding or causing accelerated degradation of the rotors.
