2010 Peugeot 3008 2.0L Diesel · GV60 TCO

This Peugeot 3008 demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend over the past five years, with the most recent MOT test on 11 July 2023 confirming no defects and a full pass. The vehicle has not undergone an MOT since then, placing it 32 months past its due date as of 21 August 2026—a significant overdue period that warrants immediate verification of all critical systems. The lack of recorded failures in the last three tests suggests consistent compliance with minor MOT thresholds, though the absence of any advisories or defects does not preclude hidden wear, particularly in high-mileage components like suspension bushes or drivetrain joints. The recorded mileage of 136,781 miles over approximately 16 years equates to an average of 8,549 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage for this vehicle’s age. The MOT history spans only four tests over five years, with two tests occurring on the same date in 2022—an anomaly that may indicate either a double-check or a data entry error. No substantial mileage gaps are evident between tests, though the lack of intermediate servicing records means critical maintenance intervals (e.g., timing belt, differential fluid) cannot be confirmed. The most recent test at 52,000 miles in September 2021 implies the vehicle has since accumulated 84,781 miles without further inspection, raising concerns for components like brake pads, suspension dampers, and exhaust system integrity. A prospective buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension system, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The absence of advisories does not rule out progressive wear—binding calipers or uneven brake pad thickness could have gone unnoticed without recent testing. Corrosion should be scrutinised at wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as these areas are prone to deterioration over 16 years. Additionally, the exhaust system and catalytic converter should be checked for leaks or structural damage, as emissions-related failures are common in older vehicles. Given the overdue MOT status, a full brake system flush and tyre condition assessment are essential to rule out deferred maintenance risks.
