2017 Peugeot 2008 1.2L Petrol · GL17 OLH

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent test on 23 June 2025 at 35,016 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This trend indicates a stable maintenance record where the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids the mechanical failures or structural degradation common in cars of this age. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old Peugeot, averaging approximately 3,900 miles per year. Data shows a period of minimal use between June 2022 and June 2023, where the car covered only 429 miles. Since the 2023 test, usage has increased slightly, with 11,986 miles recorded over the following two years to reach the current total of 35,016 miles. This low annual mileage suggests limited wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it also implies the vehicle may have sat stationary for extended periods between tests. Despite the clean records, a physical inspection should focus on specific issues associated with low-mileage vehicles. Long periods of standing can cause rubber components such as suspension bushes, tyre sidewalls, and seals to perish or crack prematurely. The buyer should check the brake calipers for seizing or corrosion on the discs, as infrequent use often leads to surface rust and binding brakes. While the MOT history shows no structural rust or exhaust failures, a manual check of the underbody remains necessary to ensure the low mileage has not resulted in undetected environmental damage.
