2021 Peugeot 2008 Allure Premium EV Electric · GL71 HSZ

A clean and unblemished MOT pass was recorded for this Peugeot 2008 on 18 November 2025, with no advisories or defects logged at that examination. The only flagged items across the recorded history are a pair of tyre advisories from the December 2024 test, where both front tyres were noted as worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge. These advisories relate specifically to the nearside and offside front tyres, indicating a symmetrical wear pattern rather than an isolated issue with one wheel. Because the 2025 test returned a completely clean sheet, any replacement tyres fitted in the interim have satisfied the examiner, though the underlying cause of that edge wear — typically alignment geometry or steering component wear — remains a relevant consideration for a prospective buyer. With 38,582 miles recorded over approximately five years, this vehicle has accumulated at a rate of roughly 7,700 miles annually, which sits squarely within typical usage parameters for a car of its age. There are no extended gaps in the testing history that would suggest prolonged periods off the road, and the mileage progression between the two recorded tests is consistent with regular everyday driving rather than extreme high-mileage use or extended standing. This level of annual mileage means consumable items such as brake pads, discs, and tyres will have experienced moderate but not excessive wear, and the electric powertrain — with fewer moving parts than a combustion equivalent — is unlikely to have been stressed by particularly demanding duty cycles. Given the symmetrical front tyre edge wear recorded in 2024, a prospective buyer should pay particular attention to the steering and suspension geometry during any inspection. It would be prudent to check the current tread depth and condition of all four tyres, looking for uneven wear across the tread face, feathering on the inner or outer edges, or any signs of camber issues that may not have been fully corrected. On a test drive, listen for any knocking or clonking from the front suspension over uneven road surfaces, which could indicate worn drop links, track rod ends, or anti-roll bar bushes. Any pulling to one side under braking or steady cruising should also be noted, as this can point to uneven brake component wear or lingering geometry concerns stemming from the earlier tyre wear pattern. While the 2025 test was clean, the brake system and electric drive components deserve direct physical scrutiny. With the recorded mileage, the brake discs are likely approaching or have already reached a point where they may require replacement at the next service, so the buyer should inspect the discs for lipping, scoring, or surface corrosion and feel for any judder through the brake pedal under firm application. The regenerative braking system on this EV should also be observed for smooth engagement and consistent retardation without warning lights or unusual noises. Under the bonnet, although EVs have fewer fluid-driven systems, the coolant reservoir, brake fluid, and washer system should be checked for correct levels and condition, and a scan for any stored diagnostic trouble codes would be advisable to confirm the health of the high-voltage system and ancillary electronics that the MOT examination does not cover.
